I think my biggest challenge will be figuring out *exactly* when the 1.3 release of libstoragemgmt is available for all these distros. I don't plan to submit a pull until I can confirm that. Speaking for a downstream, a quick search shows we've got libstoragemgmt 1.2.x (not 1.3) on the current latest versions of openSUSE and SLES.
