<font size=2 face="sans-serif">I am suffering from bug 1266513, when trying
to work on nova. For example, on MacOS 10.8.5, I clone nova and then
(following the instructions at </font><a href=https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/DependsOnOSX><font size=2 face="sans-serif">https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/DependsOnOSX</font></a><font size=2 face="sans-serif">)
run `</font><tt><font size=3>cd nova; python tools/install_venv.py</font></tt><font size=2 face="sans-serif">`.
It fails due to PyPI lacking a sufficiently advanced netaddr. So
I applied patch </font><a href=https://review.openstack.org/#/c/65019/><font size=2 face="sans-serif">https://review.openstack.org/#/c/65019/</font></a><font size=2 face="sans-serif">
to my nova/tox.ini, delete my nova/.venv, and try again. It fails
again, in just the same way (including the message "Some externally
hosted files were ignored (use --allow-external to allow)"). Why
is this patch not solving my problem?</font>
