I want to share the current state of oVirt on Fedora 28, hopefully it will

save time for other developers.

Thanks for the summary!

1. Why should I run oVirt on Fedora 28?

- Fedora is the the base for future CentOS. The bugs we find *today* on Fedora 28

are the bugs that we will not have next year when we try oVirt on CentOS.

- I want to contribute to projects that require python 3. For example, virt-v2v

  require python 3.6 in upstream. If you want to contribute you need to test

  it on Fedora 28.

- I need to develop with latest libvirt and qemu. One example is incremental

  backup, you will need Fefora 28 to work on this.

- CentOS is old and boring, I want to play with the newest bugs :-)

2. How to install oVirt with Fedora 28 hosts

    Warning: ugly hacks bellow!

- Install ovirt-release-master.rpm on all hosts

dnf install http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release-master.rpm

- Install or build engine on CentOS 7.5 (1804)[1]

Why have only half the fun? Engine works on fc28.

I needed the shortest way to Fedora 28 host. Next time I'll move it to Fedora :-)
