The ovirt-guest-agent-1.0.8 (Precise) is for Debian. Great work - thanks a lot for the Debian and Ubuntu packages! Just one little thing: Can you add python-apt to the dependency list (it's missing in the Debian Wheezy package - didn't test the Ubuntu packages but maybe it's missing there, too)? If python-apt isn't installed it's not possible to fetch installed packages: MainThread::INFO::2013-09-16 15:23:22,977::ovirt-guest-agent::37::root::Starting oVirt guest agent MainThread::INFO::2013-09-16 15:23:23,015::GuestAgentLinux2::101::root::Unknown package management. Application list report is disable GuestAgentLinux2.py requires this python module to get the package information. All other features like system shutdown, nic information, memory,... are working fine. Regards, René >
