Hi Gianluca, I added 2.6.0 to oVirt 4.0 repository at
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.0/rpm/el7/.
It was supposed to be published there with 4.0.6 GA coming ina few days but
it has been already tested enough to be promoted to release repository.

For having a qemu-kvm-ev version always aligned with CentOS release I would
suggest to run:
"yum install centos-release-qemu-ev" on your CentOS hosts.

If you decide to use CentOS VIrt SIG provided packages on your hosts
(excluding the oVirt engine host which still require oVirt repositories) I
would suggest to remove ovirt-release rpms and /etc/yum.repos.d/ovirt-*.repo
and then run:
"yum install centos-release-ovirt40".

this will add as dependencies:
Requires: centos-release-virt-common
Requires: centos-release-qemu-ev
Requires: centos-release-gluster37

providing the latest gluster 3.7 and latest qemu-kvm-ev for your hosts.

Having both oVirt repos and Virt SIG repos enabled should still work being
both the repos built from the same sources but it's not recommended.
