+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1208798 +++ The current openstack-glance package ships both, glance-api and glance-registry. In order to better support distributed deployments, this package should be split in 2 packages, one for each service. Please, refer to this thread for the upstream discussion. https://www.redhat.com/archives/rdo-list/2015-March/msg00146.html
agreed, needs to be fixed in delorean first (we haven't branched RDO yet)
Making this packaging change (in Delorean) can break end users quite badly. Is there any benefit to it other than the fact that it would prevent an extra systemd script for one of the Glance servers getting installed (but not used). In other words would installing glance-registry or glance-api in isolation result in less dependencies getting installed if we do this split? If not then I'm not sure this is worth it... and even then maybe it isn't worth breaking end users to save a dependency or two.
