Open Stack

Oh!

Ubuntu's guy.

Can you say why you didn't ship 2013.2.4? It was available in announced 
support lifecycle for cloudarchive, and you just stops to do anything 
with 2013.2.3 (havana) somewhere in the middle of the summer. It was 
really bad, because few important fixes for neutron were landed in 
2013.2.4 and was not available in 2013.2.3 (f.e. 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1240849)

(about configs)
Actual config file does not matter - we have own chef'ed configs, 
created from scratch & databags. All I wanted were to have no unexpected 
questions during installation. And I completely forgot about 
non-interactive mode for dpkg.
