Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[esala wona (esala-wangxiaoli)]

how to resolve the problem which can not install keystone development environment?Thank you.

[Mark Washenberger (markwash)]

I run into a similar problem trying to install python-glanceclient in a virtualenv on 12.04.

As a workaround, pip install pbr==0.5.21 seems to make things work.

[Carl George (carl.george)]

I am having the same issue. I also tested on a few other distros.

These distros are affected:
Ubuntu 13.10
Debian 7

These distros are NOT affected:
Arch Linux
CentOS 6.4

[Nikhil Manchanda (slicknik)]

I debugged this some more, and the issue seems to be that pbr fails to install if git is not already installed on the instance.
I'm working on a fix. Stay posted.

    Fixed pbr install to not error out and fail if git is not installed

    Fixed the issue where pbr was erroring out (file not found) when
    running 'python setup.py egg_info' since it was trying to get the
    .git directory even if git was not installed.

    Closes bug 1245676

Have not yet tested if 0.5.23 fixes the issues that have been reported in Heat's resources, will close this if 0.5.23 addresses it.

[andrew plunk (andrew-plunk)]

pbr 0.5.23 works for me in ubuntu 12.04, thanks everyone!

[Nikhil Manchanda (slicknik)]

The fix in pbr should have fixed this for heat as well (heat-cfntools install was failing because of a failure in the pbr install which is a dependency)

[Nikhil Manchanda (slicknik)]

Tested that an install of heat-cfntools succeeds with the new 0.5.23 release.

[Clint Byrum (clint-fewbar)]

This would suggest that we need to set pbr>=0.5.23 in requirements for
heat-cfntools. It would only affect those who are installing them in a
system or venv that already has >= 0.5.16 (the current req), so it is
still a low priority.
