It would be nice if it could be shipped again - my version of the
wiki ar=
ticle had instructions for two use cases - one where a Fedora VM could
conn=
ect to the Fedora repos to get the agent=2C and one use case where the VM d=
oes not have internet access. It seemed like a good workaround until we can=
see if the *nix agents can be added to a guest agent CD. For 3.5 I think L=
ev is targeting just Windows systems.=20
and since the guest agent is supposed to go to the guest instead of
being=
installed as part of the ovirt installation it kind of makes sense like th=
is indeed:)
