[PKG-Openstack-devel] Only-jessie install attempt

[Turbo Fredriksson]

Installing my all-in-one (sans Compute) Controller node
again, from scratch, I took to hart the jessie/testing
comments earlier so this time I've ONLY enabled Jessie
(and Jessie/Backports).

This is what I get:

That's bad, because Senlin (~ "AutoScalingGroups" in AWS
terms if I understand it correctly) is absolutly required
in my use case. And Glance is kind'a very important to me
as well.

But I preserver, and remove those packages from the command
line:

The key here is

  ceilometer-agent-ipmi : Depends: ceilometer-common (= 1:5.0.0-6~bpo8+1) but 2014.1.3-6 is to be installed

and it gets worse and worse the more I try. So it seems
that there's package mismatches in the archive..



Now, since Jessie don't contain one of the services I absolutly
need (and one that I think is quite important), I just went a
head and disabled Jessie completely and upgraded to Testing.

It's been years since I felt the need to run bleeding edge
and I didn't enjoy the experience at the time. But in this
case it might be for the better - Openstack is quite an active
community so it makes more sense to keep with it.


PS. I'm just sending this mail as a comment/notes update.
