Well yes, I thought of that. But my reasoning was that if I only upgrade these specific packages, there is less difference and less potential for issues. On the other hand, CentOS 7 is mostly based on Fedora 19, so it could work...guess I can only find out by trying.

Well if you are desperate enough to try such an unknown third party repo you might as well try the freshly released centos7?

Hello,
I'm trying to setup a new oVirt environment based on F19 hosts, but I'm running into so many issues, that I'm thinking of switching 'back' to CentOS. However I would lose the advanced features (libgfapi, live snapshots etc.) that are enabled in the F19 libvirt/qemu/kvm packages. So after some googling a came across Alexandar Evseev's repository with all the newest virtualization rpms packaged for CentOS 6: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/aevseev/CentOS6/x86_64/
However, I can't find any information at all about the status of these packages or any indication about stability. Is anyone familiar with this repository and would it be possible to use these packages in an oVirt environment?
libgfapi is not enabled in vdsm until libvirt has proper support for snapshots. for the other 'advanved features', you can use the .el6 rpm built in jenkins.ovirt.org
