Andreas,

Indeed, django-openstack-auth has been removed upstream and included
directly in django-horizon. I'm not sure what's the best way to get
completely rid of it on upgrades and get Horizon the best way
possible... I thought I did well, but you're telling me the opposite.
So, any advice would be welcome.

I've filed a new bug for its removal: #924919. So I'm therefore closing
this one.

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
