Pkg xen devel - Jun 2017 - Bug#866380: xen-bugtool: missing xen.util python module

Package: src:xen
Version: 4.8.1-1+deb9u1
Severity: normal

Hi,

xen-bugtool as included in the package doesn't work because of a missing
python module:

# /usr/lib/xen-4.8/bin/xen-bugtool
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/xen-4.8/bin/xen-bugtool", line 9, in <module>
    from xen.util import bugtool
ImportError: No module named xen.util

Regards,
Roberto

tags 866380 + upstream
thanks

Hi,

xen-bugtool seems to be a tool to collect some system information for a
bug report.

I can confirm that in the 4.11 packaging it gives the same result:

-# xen-bugtool
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/xen-bugtool", line 9, in <module>
    from xen.util import bugtool
ImportError: No module named xen.util

When looking at the upstream source, I can find a
docs/README.xen-bugtool about it, and this little script trying to
import it, but nothing else.

So, if anyone feels like sending an upstream PATCH to remove it... :)

For now, tagging upstream here,
Hans
