Also, please install this version of python-ethtool on the Fedora
slaves that run vdsm unit tests. Until we do, we'd have unit test
failures such as in
http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/vdsm_unit_tests_gerrit/2984/testReport/junit...
AttributeError: 'ethtool.etherinfo' object has no attribute
'get_ipv4_addresses'
Regards, Dan.
What about EL6? These packages aren't available in EL6, so how do you
handle this issue there?
I really don't like hosting packages that are part of a distro but not
part of oVirt on ovirt.org, especially ones like libvirt that are core
functionality.
It's also worth noting that this will have significant impact on oVirt
Node which builds with stock Fedora packages. The inclusion of a newer
libvirt will require that the base image either include a newer libvirt
(unlikely) or that libvirt be updated when installing the plugin
(undesired since it's core functionality).
I have no objection to installing a newer package on the jenkins slaves.
