Package: xen-utils-3.1-1 Version: 3.1.0-2 Severity: normal blktap support was re-enabled in 3.1.0-1, however the required 'tapdisk' executable needs to be symlinked in order to actually make it usable. For me, symlinking /usr/lib/xen-3.1-1/bin/tapdisk to /usr/sbin/tapdisk fixed the problem, and DomU's using blktap disks would run properly. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0

Hi, I''d like to use the blktap utils from https://github.com/xen-org/blktap because of the mirror feature, as the blktap utils comming with xen does not support this. Could anybody explain why there are two different blktap utils (one in git and one comming with xen source) and how to compile the one from git so that it works with libxl ? Any pointers greatly appreciated ;-) Thanks
