I don't belive Vdsm is soon to be used by anything outside oVirt. But if software purists win, oVirt would publish only tarballs. Fedora/Debian/whatever would build, package, and deploy them all, and the ovirt repo would become redundant.
I did not expect to hear much support for keeping Vdsm in Fedora. Given what I've heard, how about taking the in-between road?
- Keep Vdsm in Fedora, abiding to Fedora rules. - Hope that Engine and qemu-kvm-rhev join, too.
we did the work to add engine, but it was useless without its gui, and was impossible to add gwt to fedora. qemu-kvm-rhev is not needed in fedora as fedora has a full blown qemu-kvm with all features enabled. you only need qemu-kvm-rhev on .el6 hosts.
I meant that qemu-kvm-rhev is missing from Fedora's EPEL6/7 branches. As such, Vdsm cannot require it in its own EPEL build.
- Until they do, build vdsm.rpm with non-Fedora quirks (such as the qemu-kvm-rhev requirement)
