[Engine-devel] update: ovirt-engine build segfault on Fedora 20 (fixed)

[Greg Sheremeta]

ovirt-engine build segfaulting on Fedora 20 during GWT compilation was caused by an abrt-java-connector bug. See [1] for details. Fix will soon be available for Fedora 20 [2], so once that posts, it should be safe to upgrade your dev machine to F20.

If you don't want to wait, you can localinstall the RPMs linked in [1]. I have done that, and verified that it's fixed.
