[Bug 1799167] Re: nova-serialproxy missing dependency on python-websockify

[Corey Bryant]

Actually both nova-novncproxy and nova-spiceproxy are in universe due to
[1]. We should be able to add python-websockify to the nova-novncproxy
dependencies for now. Once we get the security issues fixed we can get
it promoted to main where it will get security support.

Title:
  nova-serialproxy missing dependency on python-websockify

Status in nova package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
  Release:        18.04

  ii  nova-serialproxy                   2:17.0.5-0ubuntu2      all
  OpenStack Compute - serial proxy

  It appears that the nova-serialproxy package depends on python-
  websockify, but no such dependency is currently declared for the
  package.  When nova-serialproxy is installed without python-
  websockify, the following errors are observed in syslog:

  Oct 22 08:13:42 ctrl01 nova-serialproxy[24100]: Traceback (most recent call last):

  Oct 22 08:13:42 ctrl01 nova-serialproxy[24100]: ImportError: No module named websockify

  However, if python-websockify is manually installed using apt, the
  errors resolve and the nova-serialproxy daemon is able to start.
