Sure. I think 12.04 LTS is a good release target. I can submit a package
for it. I have a look at the exception you pasted. It looks like not
related to Ubuntu, it might related to xml character filtering and
unicode. I see some related patches in the git log. This is because I
packaged the latest upstream. Maybe Vinzenz Feenstra can help to
investigate the problem. May I know the agent version you used for RHEL
guest? I can package the same version for Ubuntu 12.04.
