In practice the problem is due to the fact that it is an all-in-one
installation and so it pulled in the virt-preview part for vdsm and related
packages (qemu-kvm, seabioes, etc..).
How much is it risky to bypass the "yum distro-sync" step? Will the fedup
part run itself the distro-sync command then, or is it only a sort of
pre-check to verify consistency of packages?
In my case if fedup will retain the ovirt repos all should go ok, correct?
