I sent a fix [1] to vdsm to add glusterfs dependency conditionally. Please let me know
if this helps.

I think that this is unhelpful for two reasons:
1. Bob complains about ovirt-3.3, and you patch master.
2. We cannot take your patch to master since we already have code that
expects glusterfs>=3.4.1 (http://gerrit.ovirt.org/10200).
I believe that taking http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/21794/ into
ovirt-release would fix Bob's issues.
