We should probably add these requirements to devstack to support
developer systems as well. I think that means this discussion should
happen on the openstack-dev mailing list, instead of just the -infra
mailing list (there is some cross-over but the devstack team is
separate from the infra team). Having the discussion there will also
give us a better chance of getting the attention of the folks from the
distros who work on ensuring the packages needed to run OpenStack are
easily available for all platforms, which is the larger question here.

Would you mind reposting over on openstack-dev so we can ensure
everyone involved will see the conversation?

Thanks,
Doug
