Hi I used to use marvin for setup simulator environments for using it as integration test environments (4.5-latest) for the Ansible CloudStack modules.
It's been a while and I can not really remember exactly what it was caused it to fail but since a few weeks I was not able to setup such an environment. I think it was related to some "cypto" dependencies which didn't fit anymore. Would splitting marvin out help to make the setup more reliable for older cloudstack versions (e.g. 4.5 >=) as well? Thanks for clarification.
