Hello Chris, or anyone else affected,

Accepted nova into newton-proposed. The package will build now and be
available in the Ubuntu Cloud Archive in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. To enable the -proposed
repository:

  sudo add-apt-repository cloud-archive:newton-proposed
  sudo apt-get update

Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-newton-needed to verification-newton-done. If it does
not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change
the tag to verification-newton-failed. In either case, details of your
testing will help us make a better decision.

Title:
  nova-api conflicts with nova-placement-api in newton on xenial

Status in Ubuntu Cloud Archive:
  Fix Released
Status in Ubuntu Cloud Archive newton series:
  Fix Committed
Status in nova package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in nova source package in Yakkety:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Upgraders using the consolidated nova-api binary are unable to install and configure the nova-placement-api prior to upgrade to Ocata; this results in a short period where instances creation will be broken (until the placement-api is configured and running).

  [Test Case]
  sudo apt install nova-api nova-placement-api
  <conflict prevents installation>

  [Regression Potential]
  Low; change simply drops the Conflict stanza for nova-placement-api

  [Original Bug Report]
  While attempting to prepare for upgrade to ocata, I ran into an apt conflict between nova-api and nova-placement-api.
