Hello everyone,
I believe there is a potential issue with the RHEL 7 yum repos and at least one
missing RPM to convert a pre-existing RHEL 7.5 system into an oVirt host node.
I have the following YUM repos enabled in my RHEL 7 system, according to the
documentation:
rhel-7-server-rpms
rhel-7-server-optional-rpms
rhel-7-server-extras-rpms
I installed the oVirt 4.2 RPM:
ovirt-release42-4.2.3.1-1.el7.noarch
I then go to the engine GUI to add the new host, and during the installation
process I am informed that there is a YUM transaction error with the following
package being unavailable:
python-qpid-proton (as a dependency install for the python-gofer-proton package)
I dug around Red Hat's YUM repos and discovered that this package only exists
in the rhel-7-server-satellite-tools-6.{1..3}-rpms YUM repos from the official
Red Hat site.
I tried enabling this repo (specifically the
rhel-7-server-satellite-tools-6.3-rpms repo) to see which version of the
package would be installed, and it appears to be a custom spin for Satellite in
the release version:

Installing for dependencies:

qpid-proton-c x86_64 0.16.0-7.el7
lab1-rhel-7-server-satellite-tools-6.3-rpms 131 k
Transaction Summary
==============================================================================================================
Install 1 Package (+3 Dependent packages)
Since I shouldn't even require this repo according to the official oVirt
install documentation for hosts, and the fact that these packages appear to be
custom spins (el7sat) versions, I was curious if this is OK to use for oVirt or
if I have encountered a dependency bug with RHEL 7.5 and oVirt 4.2?
Any advice would be welcomed.
