ImportError: cannot import name v1_1

Asked by Neil Andrews

Before I begin, this is my first error report, as such if I am doing thing incorrectly it is not intentional and I will do my best to fix what I did incorrectly.
I am using a script to run the setup and it has worked several times up until yesterday and now I keep getting the following error after I did a clean install.
Before that though here is what I do to install nova (a lot of code excluded for brevity):
add-apt-repository ppa:nova-core/release
apt-get install -y nova-common nova-doc python-nova nova-api nova-network nova-objectstore nova-scheduler

now when I try to run any kind of list from nova manage I get the error stated in the title, for example:
nova-manage project list returns

It looks like you need to update python-novaclient. It is in the trunk ppa. I'm not sure why you would be getting the error if you are using the release ppa.

add-apt-repository ppa:nova-core/trunk
apt-get update
apt-get install python-novaclient
