Hello,
I'm very slowly working to make ovirt-engine running on a BSD system. My problem is that I do it for fun and as my time resources are not big I could not choose building ovirt-engine from sources as it would push me to "port" (make packages) for all java dependencies. Yes, during build maven cannot download Internet and build dependencies (for security reasons).
Would be possible to have (another) distribution archive of ovirt-engine which would be OS/distro-independent, so I could just extract and copy it to filesystem for local jboss? (RPM packages can be extracted with 'rpm2cpio' but their owners decided to make life very complicated [many symlinks etc.]).
OS/distro-independent distribution archive (.zip, .tgz) would make life much easiers for people wanting to have ovirt-engine running on a non-RPM based Linux distro or on a BSD/Solaris system.

Eyal.
Thank you very much! But.. can I respectfully ask archive tarball having date/version in its filename (ovirt-engine-archive-20130228.tar.gz)? I suppose ports (makefiles to build a BSD package) with source files without unique date/version in filenames would never be accepted. Right now I'm quite busy, I've just made some tunning of path to python interpreter, replaces absolute symlinks with relative... Real modification for BSD system (here OpenBSD) is on my TODO. I suppose hard stuff would be modification of engine-upgrade :D jbelka

done. it will be available from tonight's builds.
