If you want to "support it", here is a patch.

*** a/ovirt-release.spec 2014-02-21 10:10:00.000000000 -0500 --- b/ovirt-release.spec 2014-02-21 10:10:55.000000000 -0500 *************** *** 73,76 **** --- 73,78 ---- elif grep -qFi 'Red Hat' /etc/system-release; then DIST=EL + elif grep -qFi 'Scientific Linux' /etc/system-release; then + DIST=EL fi If you don't support Scientific Linux, then I would recommend not defaulting the DIST to Fedora and instead searching for the specific supported releases and error out otherwise. Future-wise, Scientific Linux *may* become a "CentOS variant" in Red Hat's CentOS. Cheers, Jimmy
