Hi,
I just tried that with development version of Zentyal and it works for
me. Well, there are some caveats, see below.

Luckily i was just testing Zentyal, but when I installed python-apt after
reading the error message, apt seemed to completely break. I would be
curious on a workaround/fix for this as well.
Could you be more specific? What was the problem? Was it problem with
python-apt per-se or with ovirt-guest-agent using python-apt?

I've noticed that the ovirt-guest-agent package available in the
repository mentioned on the oVirt site is missing dependency on
qemu-guest-agent. You have to install it additionally for oVirt to work
properly.
If you, however, instal the ovirt-guest-agent from official Ubuntu
repository there is different issue. There is this unresolved bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ovirt-guest-agent/+bug/1609130
You have to fix permissions on /var/log/ovirt-guest-agent as mentioned
in the bug report.

Did you run 'apt-get update' to synchronize the repository content?
