Libguestfs - Jan 2020 - Re: [PATCH 0/2] Fixes and tweak to the installation of qemu-ga MSI

This, together with the changes to common repo are fixes to the installation
qemu-ga MSI.

There is still an issue that I did not figure yet how to fix. On Windows 10 it
fails to register the QEMU-GA service.

The detection was incorrectly matching only 32-bit installer on all
architectures.

- match log file with script name
- restart manually only after successfull install, this also helps
  debugging because we can log the installer return code

Sorry I missed these patches before, thanks for reminding me.

Yes both series are fine.  I don't particularly care about needing
Powershell since I believe all *supported* versions of Windows now
have it, or (in the XP case) are upgradable to having it as long as
you make the very reasonable assumption that they are using a service
pack.

I pushed patch #1 because it is OK for me.

I did not push patch #2 because I do not have experience with
powershell, so I cannot review it ATM.

Can you please explain which kind of issues did you notice?

Actually, after another pre-push re-read, this function
(virtio_iso_path_matches_qemu_ga) will always return false now!

The main problem is this error that I get quite often is that qemu-ga
fails to register the VSS service. On the same guest it sometimes works
and sometimes it fails. And it happens only when installing in first
boot, installing manually always works.

The cryptic error[1] code -2147287038 seems to be:

I haven't figured out yet why is it happening.
