[ovirt-users] Re: Latest ManagedBlockDevice documentation

I am not sure, it's been a long time since I tried that. Feel free to file a bug. You can also try setting env var 'http_proxy' for engine-setup, e.g.: http_proxy=MY_PROXY_URL engine-setup --reconfigure-optional-components Alternatively, you can also add '--offline' to engine-setup cmd, and then it won't do any package management (not try to update, check for updates, etc.).
