Description of problem: shade is a simple client library for interacting with OpenStack clouds. The key word here is *simple*. Clouds can do many many many things - but there are probably only about 10 of them that most people care about with any regularity. If you want to do complicated things, you should probably use the lower level client libraries - or even the REST API directly. However, if what you want is to be able to write an application that talks to clouds no matter what crazy choices the deployer has made in an attempt to be more hipster than their self-entitled narcissist peers, then shade is for you. Additional info: http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-infra/shade There is an initial spec available at https://fedorapeople.org/~tdecacqu/shade.spec
python-shade is already in Fedora: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/python-shade/ Fedora Review was https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1271768 so we don't need to repeat it in RDO. NB Fedora package is python-shade not shade as you proposed. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1271768 ***
