danken commented on OVIRT-1748:
-------------------------------

[~sbonazzo at redhat.com], would a nicer error message from ovirt-guest-agent make things better? I think that shipping the agent, but not enabling it, is a reasonable solution, anyway.

The user can pull in the agent with cloud-init. [~eraviv at redhat.com] did it. it works. But it is slow and cumbersome.

Please note that I am trying to solve my problem downstream, with 
Bug 1323690 - New package request: ovirt-guest-agent
if accepted to RHEL, it would pop into CentOS and become easier to include in its cloud 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).
