Re: [Engine-devel] Fwd: [vdsm] ovirt-guest-agent on debian

Forwarding to engine devel, because it seems there is no interest in this feature on vdsm-devel. Could this get integrated somehow? I managed to reuse the ubuntu build of ovirt-guest-agent for debian.

IP information shows up in ovirt. it would be cool if the folder "precise" on the ppa could be cloned to be a folder "wheezy". So you would not need to change the apt-sources entries. I don't know why this chown error occurs, but it seems to work!
