I am trying to install oVirt on Debian. So far I've managed to install<br>

everything else is to be gotten from Fedora/EPEL repos.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div><br></div></span><div>Please note that otopi is not supporting Debian yet.</div><div>It's missing support for the packaging system used by Debian.

Not having an apt packager will simply mean you can't install/update packages using otopi, but other things should work.

I had thought of using alien to convert from rpm to deb, but<br>
apparently the recommended thing is to compile from source, since<br>
using alien can lead to a complex version of dependency hell.<br>
<br>
I can download WildFly from source, though again the recommended<br>
procedure is to install ovirt-engine-wildfly and<br>
ovirt-wildfly-overlay.<br></blockquote><div><br></div></span><div>I would suggest to get in touch with Wildfly community about having wildfly packaged for Debian.</div><span class="gmail-"><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
