[Bug 1825386] [NEW] nova is looking for OVMF file no longer provided by latest CentOS

 

Public bug reported:

In nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py the code looks for a hardcoded path
"/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd".

It appears that centos 7.6 has modified the OVMF-20180508-3 rpm to no
longer contain this file.  Instead it now seems to be named
/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd

This will break the ability to boot guests using UEFI.
