[vdsm] [Users] Trouble Upgrading (Fedora)

[Eyal Edri]

we only have 2 jobs (that i'm aware of) that installs vdsm:

http://jenkins.ovirt.org/view/vdsm/job/vdsm_3.3_install_rpm_sanity_gerrit/
http://jenkins.ovirt.org/view/vdsm/job/vdsm_master_install_rpm_sanity_gerrit/

i changed 3.3 to remove python-cpopen at the start of the test. 

Eyal.
