[rdo-dev] Backporting issue on stein (cinder-tempest-plugin)

[Luigi Toscano]

Hi,

I was trying to tag cinder-tempest-plugin to 0.3.1 to stein, because it 
contains an important fix which allows tests to be executed on deployments 
with only Volume API v3 (without v2). 

Unfortunately I hit a chicken-and-egg: if I try to simply bump the package in 
rdoinfo, I get an error: https://review.rdoproject.org/r/#/c/24808/

There is a fix to account for changed structure of the newer versions of 
cinder-tempest-plugin, but of course I can't backport it without having a 
newer tarball at the same time: https://review.rdoproject.org/r/#/c/24854/

I'm not sure on how to proceed; should I try to create a patch which works for 
both the old and the new tarball (which may be hard, not sure), bump the 
version, and then remove the workarounds, or is there another solution?

Ciao
