btw the virtio drivers are already in kernel so for a bare minimum 
functionality you're ready to go without any additional sw on Fedora. If you 
want copy&paste in SPICE you need vdagent, if you need detailed utilization 
statistics, app list, guest IP reporting, SSO  you need ovirt-guest-agent. If 
you need the new backup API and hotplug CPU in the future you'll need qemu-ga 
as well
