In Queens we deprecated the nova.image.download hook, which provided a mechanism to inject custom code into the download path of our glance module. This can now be removed. The one known potential user of this is was a direct-rbd download proposal, which needs further modification of the base glance client in order to work. Thus, this removes the hook point, but not the config option to allow specifying location schemes that should be considered direct by the glance module. This provides a path forward to integrate the direct-rbd code as a proper feature to our glance module, which will mean un-deprecating that config option, but also providing a stable list of potential options for it.

If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
