Hi Bernd,

As far as I see here:


   -
   http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/training-labs/tree/labs/osbash/lib/osbash/lib.ubuntu-14.04-server-amd64#n10

It should download 14.04.3, not sure why you are getting 14.04.2 ... I
remember updating this for Icehouse, Juno and Kilo too. Can you try to do a
git pull once and try again?

Regards,
Pranav
