Thanks, I was looking in the ovirt-4.* repos

Sandro, why the ovirt-4.* repos do not keep this version?

I assumed that installing
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release-master.rpm

is enough for getting all the requirements on master, but it seems that you need
to install also:
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release36.rpm

Which is not even documented in
http://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/vdsm/developers/
