Sorry for the silence. I've been doing some tinkering. I did what Jason did i.e. `./configure --enable-java-sdk --with-maven --with-otopi-sources=/home/user/otopi` since that's where I had checked out otopi. ./configure is able to locate where the otopi-bundle file is (/usr/share/otopi directory for me) with the options above. If you try to use the options `--otopi-bundle` or `--with-otopi-bundle`, you'll get a unrecognized option from ./configure.

Difference being that I wasn't doing the compilation as root, I was using sudo for elevated privileges. Looking at the log file, I saw the following errors: 2017-05-07 07:21:37,011+0300 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.packagers.yumpackager yumpackager._boot:184 Cannot initialize miniyum Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/user/otopi/src/bin/../plugins/otopi/packagers/yumpackager.py",
I then ran `sudo ovirt-host-deploy/src/bin/ovirt-host-deploy` at my command prompt and got the same error as that which Jason got. line 176, in _boot self._refreshMiniyum() File "/home/user/otopi/src/bin/../plugins/otopi/packagers/yumpackager.py", line 134, in _refreshMiniyum constants.PackEnv.YUM_ENABLED_PLUGINS File "/home/user/otopi/src/bin/../plugins/otopi/packagers/yumpackager.py", line 61, in _getMiniYum from otopi import miniyum File "/home/user/otopi/src/otopi/miniyum.py", line 17, in <module> import rpmUtils.miscutils

So as a workaround, I used the instructions in the README to create a file called /etc/ovirt-host-deploy.conf.d/50-offline-packager.conf to suppress this reaction. Contains the following instructions:
[environment:init] ODEPLOY/offlinePackager=bool:True PACKAGER/yumpackagerEnabled=bool:False
This allowed it to run further than it did for Jason (and myself when I tried it out).

Looking at the log file showed the following errors:

You can ignore this warning for now and get to it later on.

Now is the time to explain something. ovirt-host-deploy is not designed to be ran manually like you try. You will get the exact same error if you try to do this on CentOS or Fedora. The normal way it works is that the engine "bundles" it in a tarball, copies it to the target host using ssh, untars it there and runs it. It then talks with it - the engine sends some stuff, host-deploy replies, etc. The protocol they use is described in otopi, in the file README.dialog. otopi has (currently) two "dialects" - "human" (default) and "machine". The engine and ovirt-host-deploy talk using the machine dialog. To make ovirt-host-deploy talk with you using the machine dialog, you should run it with: ovirt-host-deploy DIALOG/dialect=str:machine To make it let you configure it, run it with: ovirt-host-deploy DIALOG/dialect=str:machine DIALOG/customization=bool:True To know what it expects at each stage, I suggest to have a look at an ovirt-host-deploy log generated on el7 or fedora. Anyway, congrats for a nice progress!
I tried starting the libvirtd service to see if that would make the VIRT/enable error go away or at least satisfy the requirements of ovirt-host-deploy, but it didn't seem to work.
If you check such a log file, you'll see there (among other things): DIALOG:SEND **%QStart: CUSTOMIZATION_COMMAND DIALOG:SEND ### DIALOG:SEND ### Customization phase, use 'install' to proceed DIALOG:SEND ### COMMAND> DIALOG:SEND **%QHidden: FALSE DIALOG:SEND ***Q:STRING CUSTOMIZATION_COMMAND DIALOG:SEND **%QEnd: CUSTOMIZATION_COMMAND DIALOG:RECEIVE env-query -k VIRT/enable DIALOG:SEND **%QStart: VIRT/enable DIALOG:SEND ### DIALOG:SEND ### Please specify value for 'VIRT/enable': DIALOG:SEND ### Response is VALUE VIRT/enable=type:value or ABORT VIRT/enable DIALOG:SEND ***Q:VALUE VIRT/enable DIALOG:SEND **%QEnd: VIRT/enable DIALOG:RECEIVE VALUE VIRT/enable=bool:true "SEND" is what the host-deploy sends, "RECEIVE" is what the engine replies. So host-deploy sent a prompt asking for a customization command, the engine sent the command 'env-query -k VIRT/enable', host-deploy then asked the engine to provide a value for 'VIRT/enable', and the engine replied 'VIRT/enable=bool:true'.
The other errors seem to be related to not having an IP address that ovirt-host-deploy can recognize. To package this for Debian, I would need to find the equivalent of yumpackager.py for aptitude/apt-get/apt, since it seems to be a dependency required by ovirt-host-deploy.
As I said, you can ignore it for now. But IMO this isn't specific to Debian - search a bit and you'll find other similar cases.
TL;DR: How to enable the virt service and assign an IP address that ovirt-host-deploy can use. Write/Find a python script that is equivalent to yumpackager.py and miniyum.py so that that dependency for ovirt-host-deploy is satisfied as well.
Last one will indeed be very interesting, but isn't mandatory for you to continue, if your stated goal is to have a Debian host managed by an oVirt engine. You can manually install all your stuff on the host, and use offlinepackager so that host-deploy will not try to install stuff for you. You'll then have a harder first-time-install, and will miss checking for updates etc. For these you'll indeed need to write something like debpackager, and probably minideb as well - engine-setup uses it directly, as otopi's packager isn't enough for it. I'd like to mention another point. As explained above, when the engine adds a host, it copies to it a bundle (tarfile). This bundle is not rpm/yum/dnf specific - it should work also on Debian. Normally, ovirt-host-deploy (the rpm package) is installed only on the engine machine. So if you do not care about the engine side for now, you should be able to try adding a Debian host to your engine already - just configure offline packager. This might be easier to debug then by manually running ovirt-host-deploy. Best, -- Didi
