The nova-live-migration job runs evacuate tests and forces one of them to bypass a down libvirt to triggera failed evacuate. It uses the nova CLI which defaults to the latest microversion and since we released python-novaclient 13.0.0 the 2.68 microversion is supported which removed the --force option on the evacuate command, and the test fails. We just need to use 2.67 on the command line.

This is why we do libs before rc.
