Comment 3 Eoghan Glynn 2015-03-12 16:25:30 UTC 
Should backport to stable/juno and get into rhos6/A3
Comment 4 Victor Stinner 2015-03-16 15:03:59 UTC 
I backported the change from master to Juno:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/164713/
Comment 6 Victor Stinner 2015-10-20 12:34:13 UTC 
My backport to Juno has been merged: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/164713/

I expected it to be included in OSP 6 thanks to regular rebases, but I missed the fact that there are no more Juno releases :-/ 2014.2.3 (April 2015) is the last release, whereas my change was merged in May 2015.

I ported the change downstream to OSP 6: https://code.engineering.redhat.com/gerrit/#/c/59767/

Note: OSP 7 has already the fix.
Comment 7 Victor Stinner 2015-11-12 15:19:11 UTC 
openstack-nova-2014.2.3-37.el7ost includes the backport of the bugfix.
Comment 9 Itzik Brown 2015-12-21 10:40:40 UTC 
Liberty Seems to be fine.
When trying to test in Juno - got BZ#1293266.
Comment 10 Joe H. Rahme 2016-01-07 14:07:26 UTC 
Managed to install Juno through the workaround mentioned in BZ#1293266.
