  I just noticed you actually went and reverted anyway, without waiting
for the explanations you requested.  I'm not too happy about that, as
you can guess.  But whatever, I'll find something else to work on.  In
the meantime, since you seem to appropriate this piece of code, please
provide a way to tell nova-common to use a remote database server with
Debconf.  Until you do that, those of us who actually try to run the
packages on several hosts are stuck.

  Alternatively, you could just unrevert.  I just did a full test with
the patch re-applied.  Actually, two full tests, with and without the
relevant preseeding.  Both cases work, as already mentioned.

Roland.
