Dependency question
Hi,
The spec file in the source tree (cloud.spec) lists python-paramiko as
adependency (Requires) for the cloud-client. Grepping for paramiko in
the python code shows a number of files that use this module.
According to the project home page the code is released under LGPL. I
think this is causes a license compatibility issue.
Is this already on the list of things that need to be addressed?
Thanks,
Robert

Marvin uses paramiko
cloud-update-xenserver-licenses does as well as tools/migration/upgrade.py
Are we really saying that python-paramiko is a system requirement?

Yes. I am asking why we need it. The python part written by myself has no dependency on it.
Most of our python script doing simple things rarely needs to depend on non-default libraries, so I wonder if we can remove that piece of code.

There's some detail on this at http://confluence.cloudstack.org/display/dev/Moving+dependencies+to+ASF+approved+licenses.

Edison, do you know that?
