Description Yaniv Kaul 2012-07-01 14:56:33 UTC 
Description of problem:
On a relatively clean machine (hand-cleaned), rhevm-cleanup creates /var/log/ovirt-engine with ownership of root:root.
This causes rhevm-setup to fail:

2012-07-01 17:49:42::DEBUG::common_utils::336::root:: stderr = 
2012-07-01 17:49:42::DEBUG::common_utils::337::root:: retcode = 1
