how it's possible? i tested it on clean f18! does your yum.repos configured properly?

yes they are.

[ovirt-nightly]
name=Nightly builds of the oVirt project
baseurl=http://ovirt.org/releases/nightly/rpm/Fedora/17/
enabled=1
skip_if_unavailable=1
gpgcheck=0

we're not distributing "pexpect", my question if f18 repo is configured.

it is configured properly

I'm getting this same issue with F18 and the version of oVirt 3.1 in the F18 repos. 

The error msg asks for pexpect<=2.3, and F18 says: "Package pexpect-2.3-8.fc18.noarch is obsoleted by python-pexpect-2.5.1-5.fc18.noarch which is already installed"

i couldn't reproduce it then on very same machine Ohad has used, but i'll change
dependency to allow pexpect >= 2.3, i guess we will cross the bridge when we'll
get there (issues with newer versions (i remember some talk about breaking backward compatibility))

anyway thanks for reporting this Jason.
