I noticed that virt-v2v, which is written exclusively in perl, failed to generate virt-v2v.pot. After much head scratching I also noticed that libguestfs.pot didn't include any messages from perl sources. Some reading of libintl-perl shows that a somewhat more complicated xgettext command line is required, as it doesn't understand Locale::TextDomain syntax by default. After a little more

Hi Rich, I ran these commands as non-root: ./autogen.sh && make && make distcheck It got most of the way through, but failed in the VPATH part while rebuilding from a ./_build subdir, like this: make[4]: Entering directory `/h/j/w/co/hivex/hivex-1.3.6/_build/ocaml' mkdir -p /usr/lib64/ocaml mkdir -p /usr/lib64/ocaml/stublibs ocamlfind install \

This short patch series fixes various problems with the Java bindings, including enabling support for functions that return hash tables (returned as Map<String,String>). With this, the Java bindings are improved although still not perfect. The last remaining issue is to implement support for functions that take optional arguments.

This patch series implements user cancellation. What this means is that the "user" (or any library caller) can cancel certain long-running operations. Currently it is only possible to cancel upload and download operations (ie. anything in the generator which uses FileIn and FileOut). The mechanism in the protocol to implement cancellation already exists, and it is already used to

Hi, I'm trying to compile hivex library that I just discovered.

It's a recurring bug in Fedora that two packages will both contain a config file with the same name (for example this currently is occurring in glibc & glibc-common in Fedora 13 with the file /etc/gai.conf). RPM appears to allow this, at least if both files are empty. If both files are empty then there appears to be no particular problem with combining the two file records in febootstrap

The more I look at this patch, the less I like it. I would summarise why I think it's wrong here, but it's better if you look at the message I posted on the gnulib mailing list here first: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2009-11/msg00434.html Directly accessing errno on Windows is wrong: you won't see the true reasons for an error by doing that. However depending on

Here is an update to the patch posted yesterday. The changes are: (1) Don't use inline (for mdbooth). (2) Added a comment to HACKING (for mdbooth). (3) Check for old-style and new-style glibc functions and use whatever is available (for danpb). (4) Removed the old shell_quote function instead of just commenting it out. Can anyone decode from Uli's message[1] whether these new

The current guestfs_find API call contains an undocumented limit: It needs to marshall the whole list of filenames into a single protocol message. Unfortunately just about any Linux guest breaks this limit if you try 'guestfs_find ("/")' so this isn't much use. These patches add a new API call (find0) which breaks this limit by using a FileOut parameter. It's slightly

These two patches implement the first (and hardest) part of the fix for CVE-2010-3851. This adds a way to specify the format when adding a drive, avoiding qemu's auto-detection. In order to avoid an explosion of different add_drive_* functions (we have 4 already), we have implemented a way to specify optional arguments to functions, so all we need is a single new 'add_drive_opts'

So I got a lot further building libguestfs on Ubuntu, up to the point where I can boot the appliance and run some simple commands. We need to push some patches upstream, and there are still some things in Ubuntu itself which are broken. This documents how far I've got. (1) libguestfs from git, Ubuntu 9.10, all updated to the latest versions. You will of course also need to read the README

These patches are a distillation of the good patches from the previous large / for-discussion-only error handling patch.

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
