Tomáš Golembiovský commented on OVIRT-1748:
-------------------------------------------
bq. Maybe you can convince the upstreams to include the agent in their images.
But frankly, I think the agent's existence is a bug and not a feature, given
that qemu-guest-agent exists and is pre-installed in most images.
At this moment qemu-guest-agent is barely usable. We are slowly working on
improving it and integrating it with oVirt. But it's slow process and it will
take some time before we can replace ovirt-guest-agent.
I have no objections to including it. My only concern would be if and how will
we handle updates of old images when ovirt-guest-agent is updated. I assume we
will not, we use what's available at installation time and that's it.
