[Bug 1346279] Re: MAAS requires explicit dependency on python-bson

[Raphaël Badin]

The utility in src/maasserver/utils/jsenums.py is used when building the
package.  It uses the map_enum utility that recently from moved over to
src/provisioningserver/utils/__init__.py.  The problem with that is that
is means that all the modules imported by
src/provisioningserver/utils/__init__.py must be present as "build
dependencies" in the packaging.

I see three possible solutions here:

- Add all the required dependencies as build dependencies in the
packaging.

- Move map_enum in a place where it can be imported in isolation without
triggering a ton of imports

- Add a copy of the code of map_enum in src/maasserver/utils/jsenums.py
instead of importing the shared map_enum.

** Summary changed:

- MAAS requires explicit dependency on python-bson
+ Building the MAAS package fails with "ImportError: No module named bson"

** Changed in: maas (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed
