Because RHEL won't update quick enough, cloning to OSP for our version until RHEL picks this up.

We'll need this package rebuilt for secure memcached support in RHELOSP 8.

See notes here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1304473#c4

In addition to above:

openstack-zaqar utilizes memcached.

Comment 2 Lon Hohberger 2016-02-03 21:55:14 UTC
The above clients all seem to use the standard python-memcache API, and do not appear to have SASL support.

Comment 3 Lon Hohberger 2016-02-03 21:57:18 UTC
It also appears that memcached when run with SASL enabled will not work with non-SASL clients.

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2016-02-03 22:05:52 UTC
