ii python-glanceclient 1:0.5.1-0ubuntu1~cloud0 Client library for Openstack glance server.

This problem totally breaks glance client actions, no functions work at all

Any guidance as to how i can resolve or workaround this problem would be really appreciated

I've found that I have a duplicate entry of the glance files
one was located here - /usr/bin - it is the correct version (references v 0.5.1 of the client)
one was located here = usr/local/bin - it was incorrect (references v 0.4.1 of the client)

I simply copied the newer file to /usr/local/bin and the client worked as it should

I also had to do this for /usr/local/bin/keystone - same issue

I must have had a bad install along the way

anyway, no need to proceed further with the bug - it doesnt appear to be a packaging issue after all
