[ovirt-users] Cannot install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup as package has file conflicts in its dependancies

Thanks for the tip Nico - I hadn't spotted that.

We use EPEL for a number of packages across our hosts, I'm guessing a proper workaround for us might be to only enable it for individual packages.

Thanks again!
