Sorry guys - I kind of missed this thread.

I'm extremely against having two setup.py's in a single repo, mainly
because it makes a ton of other stuff way harder. I think that either:


a) The projects should live in their own source code repos and therefore
have completely separate PyPI uploads and lifecycles (and appropriate
depends)

or

b) They are the same project and pip just installs the whole thing for you.

pip doesn't really grok the idea of multiple packages - because it's not
really a package management system. From the deb package perspective,
obviously, this is a piece of cake. (and I do agree that we should get
the python-glance depends sorted for that) But from a pip perspective, I
think that organizationally we need to decide if these are separate
python libs that consume one another or the same project. (and I believe
I heard python-novaclient is being sucked in to nova, so the precedent
seems to be that we don't care for client lib projects having different
lifecycles)

All of that being said - I'd love to sort out the pip depends issues
you're having between glance and dashboard ... as it _does_ seem like
something that should be able to be co-installable. Perhaps we should
sit down this week and sort it out?
