Open Stack

Hello,

This issue was discovered on Kolla train-centos8 images, but I assume
it applies to both Train and Ussuri for CentOS 8 in general, not just
to Kolla.

CloudKitty became timezone-aware in Train:
https://review.opendev.org/#/c/669192/
This code references tz.UTC from the dateutil library. However, this
was added only in dateutil 2.7.0, while train-centos8 Kolla images use
package python3-dateutil-2.6.1-6.el8.noarch.rpm, causing the error
captured at the end of this message [2].

I submitted a patch to raise the minimum requirement for dateutil in
cloudkitty: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/742477/
However, how are those requirements taken into consideration when
packaging OpenStack in RDO? RDO packages for CentOS7 provide
python2-dateutil-2.8.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm, but there is no such package
in the CentOS8 repository.

Would it be better to just remove the use of tz.UTC? I believe we
could use dateutil.tz.tzutc() instead.

Thanks,
Pierre Riteau (priteau)
