I've not tried devstack on centos, but I do know of
specific updates to packages in EPEL to support OpenStack.

 python-paste-deploy1.5
 python-routes1.12
 python-sqlalchemy0.7
 python-webob1.0

Note the appended version number which differentiates
those parallel installable versions from the "official"
non backwards compatible version in Centos 6.
Anyway you may be able to install the above and
remove the "official" versions.

Or you can also proceed with your pip install method,
while also considering the other 3 packages I noted.

thanks,
Pádraig.
