Barak Korren commented on OVIRT-1748:
-------------------------------------

[~danken at redhat.com] we talked about this before. We provide only clean, unchanged upstream images in Glance, and we intend to continue to do so. This is very important for user trust IMO.

Maybe you can convince the upstreams to include the agent in their images. But frankly, I think the agent's existence is a bug and not a feature, given that qemu-guest-agent exists and is pre-installed in most images.

> ovirt-guest-agent is an important part of the ovirt experience. So is glance.ovirt.org.
> By shipping images pre-installed with our guest agent, we would provide a better product for our users. Also, doing so would make it simpler to add tests the verify the state of the guest (e.g how many interfaces does it have, and what are its IP addresses).
