similar to: [PATCH] Guestfish feature: remote control of guestfish over a pipe

In 1.11.1 / git, I have made some changes to the way that you run guestfish, guestmount and the virt tools from the build directory without installing. Firstly you can't just run ./fish/guestfish or ./fuse/guestmount any more and have those programs magically set LIBGUESTFS_PATH. The automagic code was always error-prone and I have removed it. Secondly, all of the run-*-local scripts have

I've pushed this patch in response to a user request to make it easier to write newlines and other characters in guestfish: http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=commitdiff;h=617e7f6bafa7de2303c08e1715004aae3141c389 This lets you write: ><fs> write /file "this is a line\n" and have it do what you'd expect. (With current guestfish, this writes backslash

This two-part patch implements the 'hexedit' command described here: http://rwmj.wordpress.com/2010/09/18/new-feature-guestfish-hexedit/#content The first part implements two new APIs for partial writing and reading of files. These are modelled after guestfs_upload and guestfs_download but allow you to specify an offset and (for download only) a size: int guestfs_download_offset

This series of patches aim to make adding disks from libvirt domains easy through the core API. These two new APIs allow you to add the disks from a libvirt domain. The higher level add-domain API takes the name of the libvirt domain as a string and connects to libvirt itself. The lower level add-libvirt-dom API relies on the program to connect to libvirt and pass the virDomainPtr into the API

OK, I believe this is the cause of the 3 related failures on CentOS / RHEL. Calls to guestfs_umount ("/dev/...") didn't have the device path being rewritten.

1/8 generator: Rearrange argt logically (RHBZ#642934,CVE-2010-3851). 2/8 generator: Optional arguments, add-drive-opts (RHBZ#642934,CVE-2010-3851). These two previously posted. 3/8 fish: Specify format of disks (RHBZ#642934,CVE-2010-3851). Updates to guestfish to add the --format option and to make -d copy the format from libvirt. 4/8 fuse: Specify format of disks (RHBZ#642934,CVE-2010-3851).

There's a missing dependency in the ocaml subdirectory which causes this error whenever the main library changes: ocamlfind ocamlopt -cclib -L../src/.libs -I . unix.cmxa mlguestfs.cmxa t/guestfs_005_load.cmx -o t/guestfs_005_load File "_none_", line 1, characters 0-1: Error: Files t/guestfs_005_load.cmx and mlguestfs.cmxa make inconsistent assumptions over interface Guestfs

A new version of this patch, previously posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2009-August/thread.html#00031 I've made some of the changes that Jim suggested, but I didn't fix the error handling of readdir because that loop always reads from a tmpfs. It didn't seem like there would realistically be any read errors(?) These commands are compromised in their

This patch series adds support for outputing an ext2-based appliance from febootstrap-supermin-helper. The usage is very simple, you just add '-f ext2' flag and the name of the appliance file that you want to write to. The implementation uses libext2fs, which is a very low level way to create ext2 filesystems from scratch. We'd like to use libguestfs, but that's an obvious
