Public bug reported:

When generating glance-api.conf and glance-registry.conf, the workers
directive, even though commented, is populated with a value which
depends on the number of CPU (or core?) of the machine generating the
file. This means that the build of Glance isn't reproducible (ie:
building the package on 2 different machine will not produce byte for
byte identical packages).

If you didn't hear about the Debian reproducible build effort, please read these wiki entries:
https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds/About

and please consider removing non-deterministic bits when generating the
configuration files.
