OpenNebula package mantainer request

[Jaime Melis]

Hi,

Steve: thanks for the info, good to know.

Today we changed some code in OpenNebula and now it's compatible with
the current sqlite-devel package, so there's no more need to use newer
versions of sqlite (at least for opennebula).

The only "missing" dependency now is xmlrpc-c.

regards,
Jaime
