Bug Description

In python-openstackclient-0.4.1-1

The 'quota show' command has the output formatter:

-c COLUMN, --column COLUMN
                        specify the column(s) to include, can be repeated

But it doesn't work. Tests:

(openstack) quota show PROJECT_ID -c ram
ERROR: cliff.app 'module' object has no attribute 'compress'

(openstack) quota show 1ba03dae-e7f9-4b1f-afb3-ba9429d45c67 -c cores
ERROR: cliff.app 'module' object has no attribute 'compress'

(openstack) quota show -c cores 1ba03dae-e7f9-4b1f-afb3-ba9429d45c67
ERROR: cliff.app 'module' object has no attribute 'compress'

For other commands, that output formatter works, for example:

(openstack) project list -c ID
+--------------------------------------+
| ID |
+--------------------------------------+
| xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |
| yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy |

I'd be curious to see "quota show PROJECT_ID -c ram --debug" to get a full stack trace.

Ok, aparently this problem is solved in the last python-cliff version https://github.com/openstack/cliff/blob/master/cliff/show.py#L42

The problem was here https://github.com/openstack/cliff/commit/e3bec7be19c8cfa8e8025e84bf0444109dcce730#diff-149435a5aaeb5930192be401684e091fL41

For python 2.6, itertool wasn't have 'compress' function, so it was crashing.

Still, I thing this is a bug in python-openstackclient because it has not the proper version of python-cliff library. I propose to change the requirements for python-openstackclient-0.4.1 in order to have the good python-cliff version

Is it possible to change the requirements of a package that's already out there? I mean we could backport a fix, but would things actually get repackaged?

We don't do stable releases (yet?), we only roll forward. There may be de facto stable releases at some point for the actual client libs, of which OSC is not one, for stable branch testing that requires some fix.

Since the bug is in cliff, simply installing an updated cliff release should take care of it. In a fresh install, pip will install the latest release as we do not cap cliff in our requirements.

I can not speak to what can/will happen with packaged releases of OSC.
