Patch was merged but not working.
It causes /var/lib/ovirt-engine to be empty within the rpm.

The correct solution would to revert and to set ownership at the %install section:
---
install -dm 755 %{buildroot}/%{engine_state}/deployments
install -dm 755 %{buildroot}/%{engine_state}/content
install -dm 755 %{buildroot}/%{engine_log}/{notifier,engine-manage-domains}
install -dm 755 %{buildroot}/%{engine_run}/notifier
install -dm 755 %{buildroot}/%{engine_lock}
---

Or to specify explicitly each at the appropriate %files section.

Package is not unusable as ovirt-engine service is not started because the content and other directories are missing.
