[ovirt-users] Fwd: [Pkg-libvirt-discuss] Packaging oVirt for Debian

[Leni Kadali Mutungi]

Forwarding this so that it is seen on oVirt's mailing list as well. In
future, I'll try to make sure that I mail both the Debian
Virtualization team and the oVirt users insofar as the topic is
relevant to both sides.

Have a look at python-apt. That will allow you to write a wrapper
similar to miniyum.py.
