Ok then! It's my ignorance and unfamiliarity with OpenStack that's at fault
then…

All I saw that "Cinder" is version "2014.1.13-11+deb8u1" (this on a Jessie
with all "sid" and "testing" deb lines) and at the repo the latest (apparently
not :) is "2015.1.3"...

Ok. Need any help anywhere? I don't have the hardware yet, but I'm hoping
to get some around payday :). Unless I go with the storage bits this month
and the Compute next month...
