Also, on the debian instructions, I found one error:

Under "starting the service", the 2nd line (after su - ) states:
service ovirt-guest-agent enable &&  service ovirt-guest-agent start

However, on debian systems, the first part won't work.  The working version
would read:
update-rc.d ovirt-guest-agent enable &&  service ovirt-guest-agent start
