[Bug 1656333] Re: [SRU] Fix uuid shim in newer Python versions

[Matthias Klose]

I checked that nova, oslo.messaging, glance, cinder build with the
proposed python 2.7.12 update packages using this kombu version (I
didn't check with the python2.7 currently in trusty).

Title:
  [SRU] Fix uuid shim in newer Python versions

Status in kombu package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in kombu source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Description]
  Rebuilding cinder and glance with python2.7.12 for trusty is resulting in kombu failures such as:

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/kombu/utils/__init__.py", line 17, in <module>
      from uuid import UUID, uuid4 as _uuid4, _uuid_generate_random
  ImportError: cannot import name _uuid_generate_random

  See: http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/ftbfs/rebuilds/test-rebuild-20161216
  -updates-python2712-trusty.html

  This backports a patch from upstream kombu to fix the uuid shim in
  newer Python versions. It is also backward compatible with the current
  version of Python in trusty.

  [Test Case]
  Building cinder and glance will run unit tests that will fail with Python2.7.12 without this patch.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low. The patch is cherry-picked from upstream.
