https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208059 This report has an x86_64 Xen guest where _libdir is expanding to /usr/lib; perhaps /etc/rpm/platform needs to be set up by the Xen guest-creating scripts? Is this a known issue? Paul, if you do: echo x86_64-redhat-linux > /etc/rpm/platform does that fix the problem? joe

Thank you! I do notice that the xen0 has ia32e-redhat-linux as well, though it did not seem to suffer from this problem when building rpms - it used /usr/lib64 fine. Can you tell me more about this?

Hello, I have an example xen domain running however I want to add virtual networks ( ip networks ) When I run: xm vnet-list It says: Error: method "xend_vnets" is not supported Does this mean I need a xen binary with this support? If so what is the RPM package name? regards, matt

If so what is the RPM > package name?No, this means that the ''xm'' client is trying to invoke a method in xend which does not exist. Looking at the mercurial changelogs upstream Xen development removed the xend_vnets method back in March 2006 $ hg log -r 5c9c44fc1c39 changeset: 9403:5c9c44fc1c39 parent: 9401:2c77d26871f7 user: anthony@rhesis.austin.ibm.com date: Thu Mar 23 11:25:37 2006 +0100 summary: Use XML-RPC as a transport for Xend instead of S-Expression/HTTP. $ hg log --patch -r 5c9c44fc1c39 | grep --after 2 xend_vnets - def xend_vnets(self): - return self.xendGet(self.vneturl()) - I don''t see any obvious way to fix this, so it''ll have to be reported bck to upstream Xen developers for resolution.

I think this file is created by anaconda. So if it''s wrong in your xen0 and just gets copied as-is to the guests, there is probably something very wrong elsewhere. (I don''t claim to understand how or why this file is used or needed by rpmbuild, sorry) joe

(I don''t claim to understand how or why > this file is used or needed by rpmbuild, sorry)Yes, this is created by anaconda - it is, however, corect - ia32a is the canonical architecture for Intel''s x86_64 CPUs. The problem is that the basic RPM / rpmbuild macros for some reason don''t treat it as a 64-bit arch - redhat-rpm-config fixes it for reasons I don''t understand, so I re-assigned it to rpm.
