This looks like a problem in lxml itself, not in ovirt-shell. That
"bugtrack_url" option isn't supported by the Python setup tools, only by
PyPI, but the setup.py file in lxml 3.3.4 does contain it. Anyhow it is
just a warning, it shouldn't cause any real problem. I'd suggest to
install the python-lxml package instead of letting easy_install install
it, this should eliminate that warning.

I completely agree, let me know how I can help.
