They should not have failed. The only reason they could have failed is if
there were added deps - and there were - to the dashboard.
Specifically, hosted-engine-setup was added as a dep, bringing with it a
huge amount of other packages (virt-viewer, which although I requested was
not removed, which brings spice, which brings GTK...) - overall, ~500 RPMs
(!).

This is the reason I thought of abandoning this patch - which I think I've
commented on in the patch itself.

Yes, for two reasons:
1. It allows less code duplication.
2. It allows us to test 4.0 with v3 API.
3. It allows us to compare 4.0 to 3.6.x.

We need at some point to add v4 API tests to 4.0.
Y.
