ceilometer-collector and agent-notification fails to import qpid.messaging

[Richard Su]

When using qpid as the messaging backend, ceilometer-collector and ceilometer-agent-notification fail to startup because qpid-python is not installed.

qpid-python should be added to requirements.txt.

Bleh, I really need to follow-up on the optional dependencies discussion or this is going to be a recurring problem.

[gordon chung (chungg)]

we're switching to oslo.messaging in ceilometer so that should bring it in (as it does with kombu)... if not, the requirement should probably be added on oslo.messaging.

marking as incomplete for now... something we can take a look at post migration

[Ben Nemec (bnemec)]

I don't think we're supporting qpid anymore, so if this is still a problem it won't be fixed.
