ovirt-engine-backend-3.5.0.1-1 is ovirt-engine-3.5.0.1_rc5 (ovirt-engine-backend-3.5.0.1-0.0.master.20141009085636)
plus the following patches:
* 0aa366e - (tag: ovirt-engine-3.5.0.1) build: ovirt-engine-3.5.0.1 (2 weeks ago) <Sandro Bonazzola>
* 7b1335a - core: dont copy old num of sockets on hotplug (2 weeks ago) <Omer Frenkel>
* b23106c - core, engine: Fix VM CD change in JSON RPC (2 weeks ago) <Vitor de Lima>

Using the -pre repo allow you to rollback rpms if something goes wrong during the upgrade process.
You can avoid to add -pre repo, but then you won't have rollback support during the upgrade.
