Comment 3 Moritz Baumann 2013-02-27 15:09:17 UTC

The patch in ovirt-gerrit (http://gerrit.ovirt.org/12004) did fix the engine-setup run for me.

Comment 4 Eli Mesika 2013-03-05 11:53:11 UTC

fixed in commit : b12fc07

Comment 5 Itamar Heim 2013-08-21 16:39:40 UTC

as RC is built, moving to ON_QA (hopefully did not catch incorrect bugs when doing this)

Comment 6 Itamar Heim 2013-09-23 07:30:51 UTC

closing as this should be in 3.3 (doing so in bulk, so may be incorrect)
