Description Vinzenz Feenstra [evilissimo] 2013-12-16 12:06:30 UTC
The oVirt Guest Agent needs to be packaged for and ported to Debian

Comment 1 Brook Harty 2013-12-16 17:49:16 UTC
Yes, we need ovirt-agents for Debian 6 also. I have a couple Debian 6 vm's dont have ovirt-guest due to missing dependencies and older versions of software.

If the linux ovirt-agent package can be made to install without dependencies the better to support. 

Wouldnt mind a FreeBSD ovirt-guest, I have 1 oddball VM for a customer that doesnt have an ovirt-agent either.

Well the current plan was to go for the current stable release (Debian 7). Debian 6 had some limitations, but I don't recall exactly what it was.

There will be dependencies due to the nature of features we are providing, however it should be not too much though.

As far as I know there are unfortunately no virtio-serial drivers for freebsd available yet.

Comment 3 Vinzenz Feenstra [evilissimo] 2014-05-05 14:43:15 UTC
Packaged for Debian 7.x only

verified with ovirt-guest-agent-1.0.10-1.1 and Debian7 wheezy

Comment 5 Sandro Bonazzola 2014-10-17 12:35:17 UTC
oVirt 3.5 has been released and should include the fix for this issue.
