No, as I earlier pointed out, there is a place you can get the packages you need for CentOS: http://jenkins.ovirt.org/view/All/job/qemu-kvm-rhev_create-rpms_el6/lastS... You'll have to download- and force install them over the already installed versions of those packages on all Hosts and then it'll work. Though, next time there are updates, yum will update from the standard repos and it just stops working again until you repeat the procedure. /K > > On Sat, Jul 5, 2014 at 7:05 AM, Karli Sjöberg <Karli.Sjoberg(a)slu.se&gt; > wrote: > > > > Den 5 jul 2014 15:57 skrev Brad Bendy <brad.bendy(a)gmail.com&gt;: > > > > > >> > >> If I use Fedora will "everything" work?
