[ovirt-users] oVirt-node 4.4.0 - Hosted engine deployment fails when host is unable to download updates

Hi, fresh installation of oVirt-node 4.4.0 on a cluster -- the hosted-engine --deploy command fails if DNF is unable to download updates. This cluster is not connected to the public network at the moment. If I use a proxy (setting the relevant env. variables) it fails at a later stage (I think the engine VM is trying to download updates as well, but encounters the same issue and doesn't seem to use the proxy). With oVirt-node 4.3.x I didn't have this issue -- any suggestions? [~]# hosted-engine --deploy [ INFO ] Stage: Initializing [ INFO ] Stage: Environment setup During customization use CTRL-D to abort. Continuing will configure this host for serving as hypervisor and will create a local VM with a running engine. The locally running engine will be used to configure a new storage domain and create a VM there. At the end the disk of the local VM will be moved to the shared storage. Are you sure you want to continue?
