Okay. It looks like Swift also still depends on swiftclient. Long term it would be nice if we could build and unit test swift without relying on the swiftclient package. Could we:

 1) Move any binaries that require swiftclient into the python-swiftclient project.

 2) Move swift function tests into Tempest.

I know Nova Diablo had a dependency on python-novaclient which we removed in Essex. This seems to make the testing, packaging, and deployment much cleaner.
