Does the oVirt specific rpm based delivery allow rolling back? Could you point me to that logic? A general approach could be to make /etc/ovirt-release a symlink. Right now I'd even consider to move this file to /usr/lib/ovirt-release, this will be much better suioted for image based deliveries … - fabian > >> >> >> A CPE [1] is also included for convenience. >> >> Thoughts? >> >> - fabian >> >> -- >> [0] https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/46067/ >> [1] http://cpe.mitre.org/ > > > > > -- > Sandro Bonazzola > Better technology.
