Hi Itamar,

thanks for pointing this out.
I didn't know the history of the code base.

It seems that there always will be a difference
in the functionality of qemu- and ovirt-agent.

So my conclusion and advice would be to keep
this duplicated functionality and, if possible,
extend ovirt-guest-agent to be a superset of
functions over qemu-guest-agent, thus avoiding
installation of both agents.

But I don't know if this is possible.
