ethtool is used in plugins/hypervisors/kvm/src/com/cloud/hypervisor/kvm/resource/LibvirtComputingResource.java so this package is required in cloudstack-agent installation. If you use "dpkg -i" to install the deb packages and meet error about dependencies, you can use "apt-get install" or "apt-get install ethtool" to fix it.
