If the gluster checkbox is set on the cluster then you'll need the 
gluster packages. If you don't use gluster but said so 
(both=virt+gluster) during engine-setup then the checkbox will be 
checked and you'll need the packages.
The bigger problem ofcourse is that oVirt-3.2.1 requires gluster-3.4.0 
which isn't in the standard repos at the moment.
