Just rebuilt rhev-agent-2.3.16-3.el5.src.rpm on a CentOS 5.10 x86_64
VM on oVirt 3.3.1-2.fc19 and the agent seems to work.
In the sense that:
- I get VM ip in web gui

- I get list of applications in web gui:
Installed Applications
kernel-2.6.18-371.1.2.el5
kernel-2.6.18-371.el5
rhev-agent-2.3.16-3
xorg-x11-drv-qxl-0.0.12-2.el5

- when there is activity, I see memory,cpu and network usage rows with
consistent values

Other things to verify?
