Right Armando. Brocade’s mech driver problem is due to NETCONF templates - would also prefer to see a common area for such templates – not just common code. Sort of like: common/brocade/templates common/bigswitch/* -Shiv From: "Armando M." <armamig at gmail.com<mailto:armamig at gmail.com>> Reply-To: "OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions)" <openstack-dev at lists.openstack.org<mailto:openstack-dev at lists.openstack.org>> To: "OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions)" <openstack-dev at lists.openstack.org<mailto:openstack-dev at lists.openstack.org>> Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] [Neutron] - Location for common third-party libs? I believe the Brocade's mech driver might have the same problem. That said, if the content of the rpm that installs the BigSwitch plugin is just the sub-tree for bigswitch (plus the config files, perhaps), you might get away with this issue by just installing the bigswitch-plugin package. I assume you tried that and didn't work? I was unable to find the rpm specs for CentOS to confirm. A.

This works fine for distributions that include the entire neutron code base. However, some break apart the neutron code base into separate packages. For example, in CentOS I can't use the Big Switch ML2 driver with just ML2 installed because the Big Switch plugin directory is gone. Is there somewhere where we can put common third party code that will be safe from removal during packaging?
