Fedora xen - Dec 2007 - Update to Xen 3.1.2 available for testing

FYI, in both Fedora 7 & and Fedora 8, I have got new updates of the Xen 
userspace to be sync to the latest Xen 3.1.2 bugfix release available for
testing.  If you wish to test this, you can do

   yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update xen

If there are no major problems reported I will push these to
''updates'' in
about a week.

Regards,
Dan.

Hmm, this is only the userspace, so how about the xen itself? Is it going to 
be updaded to 3.1.2 .. It would mean new kernel packages?

Xen 3.1.x  maintains hypervisor ABI compatability, so you can use any
3.1.x hypervisor with any 3.1.x userspace. We will update the hypervisor
separately, when we do a kernel-xen update.
