Description Fabian Deutsch 2016-06-08 08:33:26 UTC 
Description of problem:
Curently hosted-engine-setup requires virt-viewer. This is pulling in a graphics stack (and many megabytes of packages).
With the appliance flow in place the virt-viewer should become an optional dependency.

This has a direct impact on the size of Node.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Comment 2 Yaniv Lavi 2016-06-23 14:38:44 UTC 
Will it be in the host channel for node?
Comment 3 Fabian Deutsch 2016-06-23 14:58:28 UTC 
No, not hosted-engine.

The RHEVH channel will only contain rhevh and appliance.
Comment 4 Fabian Deutsch 2016-07-29 15:24:38 UTC 
It turns out that hosted-engine-setup is not the only component requiring the X11 stack through virt-viewer.

So this is a good imporvement but will not solve that X11 is pulled into Node.
