Since Vdsm was open-sourced, it was built and deployed via Fedora.
Recently [http://gerrit.ovirt.org/31214] vdsm introduced a spec-file dependency onf qemu-kvm-rhev, and considered to backport it to the ovirt-3.4 brach.
Requiring qemu-kvm-rhev, which is not part of Fedora's EPEL6 branch, violates Fedora's standards.
So basically we have two options:
1. Revert the qemu-kvm-rhev dependency. 2. Drop vdsm from EPEL6 (or completely from Fedora); ship Vdsm only within the oVirt repositories.
A third option would be to have one rpm, with qemu-kvm-rhev, shipped in ovirt, and another without it - shipped in Fedora. I find this overly complex and confusing.
I think that until now (centos6) we were using qemu-kvm/qemu-img in the spec file and then the ovirt repository was distributing qemu-*-rhev from:
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.4-snapshot/rpm/el6/x86_64/
It this not possible with centos7? Any problem with that?
We're shipping qemu-kvm-rhev on 3.4, 3.5 and master for EL6 and EL7. The issue is that if you don't enable ovirt, epel fails repository closure.
I find being in fedora a way to keep the spec file and the rpm updated and as clean as possible.
