Packstack along the rest of the components. Testing it may be out of scope, but at least
it should generate the PackStack RPM. It'd avoid the problem you just described so
people could test the very latest version of all the packages with ease.

+1, this is a good idea
Do we need a release RPM though that makes getting the combination of
nightly + stable repos enabled simultaneously?
I chatted with apevec with this and we came to conclusion that a release
rpm isn't needed... what we do need to do is take this repo file:
http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/openstack/openstack-trunk/el6-opensta...
Right now it just has:
# Place this file in your /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory
[el6-openstack-trunk]
name=Openstack Upstream Repository for EL6
baseurl=http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/openstack/openstack-trunk/el6...
enabled=1
skip_if_unavailable=1
gpgcheck=0
priority=98
But we need to add to that repo file an additional repo:
[openstack-havana]
name=OpenStack Havana Repository for EPEL 6
baseurl=http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/openstack/openstack-havana/ep...
enabled=1
skip_if_unavailable=0
gpgcheck=0
priority=98
That way when you grab the nightly repo file, you would get packstack
from the openstack-havana repo and other base packages like kernel, etc.
But then the nightly openstack specific RPMs would come from the
nightly repo.
Alan, can you make this change tomorrow?
