The ovirt-guest-agent returns "free" memory as the sum of three fields (free memory, buffers and cache). The logic behind this is because linux will reduce the memory used for buffers and cache as needed. So we can assume this is a "free" memory.
Has anyone built a rpm repo with common RPMs, only one I see is fc16.
The ovirt-guest-agent can probably build and used only on fc16. This is due the changes in the file system layout (/run is tmpfs for example) and using systemd and not initd.
nathan - if you make it work, feel free to send patches making it support both platforms (or any other distro)
do you mean noarch?
Although the agent is written in python and could have been noarch it is not possible because of its sub-packages. The sub-packages (gdm/kdm plug-ins and a pam module) are written in C.
I found a older SRPM ovirt-guest-agent-1.0.0-2.1.src.rpm and was able to compile it for Centos 6.2. Is there anyting special you need to do to set it up? Right now I get:

Is the directory /var/run/ovirt-guest-agent exists and does the rhevagent user have a write permissions on it?
