[Bug 1763179] Please test proposed package

[Corey Bryant]

Hello Sean, or anyone else affected,

Accepted python-oslo.versionedobjects into ocata-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:ocata-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-ocata-needed to verification-ocata-done. If it does
not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change
the tag to verification-ocata-failed. In either case, details of your
testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in
advance!

  SRU details for Ubuntu
  ----------------------
  [Impact]
  See Original Description below.

  [Test Case]

  1. deploy openstack env
  2. source novarc ( as admin )
  3. keystone user-create --name test
  4. openstack user set --password-prompt test
  4. log into keystone node and install mysql-client
  5. connect to mysql with keystone user
  6. do below query
  - set foreign_key_checks = 0;
  - update local_user set user_id='Gāo' where user_id='UUID';
  - update user set id='Gāo' where id='UUID';
  - set foreign_key_checks = 1;
  7. keystone user-role-add --user test --tenant admin --role Admin
  8. source novarc ( as test )
  9. cinder create --name test 1

  got unicode error on cinder-api node logs

  [Regression Potential]
  Low as the patch has landed upstream.

  
  Original Description
  --------------------
  Change https://review.openstack.org/#/c/557778/ changed the return value for coerce() to explicitly force the value to be unicode. This causes problems with Python 2 runtimes, where the expected value of a string is no longer a string but now unicode (see: https://github.com/openstack/cinder/blob/b89e73a2ac315927d2eee42129597b14e87ba685/cinder/tests/unit/volume/drivers/dell_emc/vmax/test_vmax.py#L3412)

  The correct fix should be to use either six.text_type to convert it,
  or format it into a string as is being done, but without forcing it to
  be a unicode string. "%s" will end up being the correct type depending
  on whether it is running under py2 or py3.
