Hi,
I have been using oVirt in Scientific Linux for one year and everything works well.

Regards.

Hi Sandro,

Dave Neary's comment is good. Here is a new patch:


*** a/ovirt-release.spec        2014-02-21 10:10:00.000000000 -0500
--- b/ovirt-release.spec        2014-02-21 13:01:35.856636466 -0500

*** 69,75 ****
  #Fedora is good for both Fedora and Generic (and probably other based on Fedora)

  #Handling EL exception only (for now)
! if grep -qFi 'CentOS' /etc/system-release; then
!     DIST=EL
! elif grep -qFi 'Red Hat' /etc/system-release; then
      DIST=EL
  fi

      DIST=EL
  fi

Might be faster for you to submit cause I'm not familiar with gerrit, but I can login with my Fedora FAS account.

Cheers,
Jimmy

Hi Jimmy,

As far as I know, scientific linux isn't supported by ovirt.

IIUC it's based on CentOS / RHEL so it may work.
Let us know if you've issues :-)



But you can always try submitting a patch ;)


SL works fine with ovirt. If you want to "support it", here is a patch.

http://gerrit.ovirt.org/24869
If you've an account on gerrit you can review / verify it.


*** a/ovirt-release.spec    2014-02-21 10:10:00.000000000 -0500
--- b/ovirt-release.spec    2014-02-21 10:10:55.000000000 -0500

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
