The right fix for this is dependent upon more complicated work that is underway for havana. There is an import/export effort in which incoming images can be verified/converted as opposed to just uploaded. This is a very good place to verify things like the image size. This is also coupled with the async workers blueprint: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/async-glance-workers. Also, I'd argue that using the size field is the right thing to do. The size is also important to know what the file size is. For example, using the image size instead of the file size would break all features that rely on that (Progress bar, for example). It may be necessary to explicitly differentiate the image_size from the file_size, which in many cases will be the same. This will be fixed as part of this blueprint: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/split-image-size I'm closing this as WONTFIX because the image size won't match the virtual_size. Instead, the proposed blueprint will add a new virtual_size attribute that will hold this information. Flavio, I'm moving requires_doc_text to - since nothing was done. Unless you you want to set it as a Known Issue with text? Is there a specific user problem that you'd like to point out? (Release notes are regenerated with each maintenance release if you want to include info.) The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 1000 days |
