similar to: hivex 1.2.6

I'm pleased to announce the next release of hivex, a library and some tools for reading and writing Windows Registry hive files. Man page: http://libguestfs.org/hivex.3.html Source: http://libguestfs.org/download/hivex/ Git repo: http://git.annexia.org/?p=hivex.git;a=summary Fedora pkg: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3267857 This release mainly contains bug fixes.

Hi, While working on Debian packages of hivex 1.2.5, I came across a test failure for the Python bindings with Python 2.7 on the i386 architecture. (The tests ran fine on amd64.) ,---- | $ make -C python check | make[1]: Entering directory `/home/bengen/src/deb/hivex/hivex.git/python' | 010-import.py | 020-open.py | 021-close.py | 200-write.py | python: hivex-py.c:52: get_handle: Assertion

* Richard W.M. Jones: > ACK, same as this libguestfs fix: It looks like I might be able to ship the Debian package for the next version without any specific patches. Hooray! I believe that I have pushed all the changes that I needed in the hivex library itself. How about doing another release? Cheers, -Hilko

I am going to make an attempt at debugging this tonight, any advice would be appreciated. Cheers, -Hilko ,---- | (sid)bengen at

Hi, libhivex seems to do a great job at parsing hives most of the time, but there are some issues with a few registry keys. These can be worked around in the application that uses libhivex, but I think it'd be better if libhivex handled these itself. 1. UTF16 string in REG_SZ that has garbage after the \0\0 There is code in hivex.c to handle this already but I think it has a typo: /*

Hi, Backports of the libguestfs, febootstrap, and hivex packages that have been shipped with Debian 7 (wheezy) for Debian 6 (squeeze) are now available via backports.debian.org. The versions are: libguestfs 1:1.18.1-1+deb7u2~bpo60+1 febootstrap 3.17-1~bpo60+1 hivex 1.3.6-2~bpo60+1 I have also removed the archive of older backports that was previously available at

Hi Hilko, Thanks a lot for creating this test hive! I think another thing that will trip up Registry programs is value names that include back slashes. For example, under the System hive, the key "\MountedDevices" has child values with names like "\DosDevices\C:" (the leading backslash is a part of the value name). There are many other values that include backslashes. I

[Forwarding to the proper list] We use hivex for one of our projects and I see the following diff committed to the hivex project (source link provided) that ignores trailing garbage. But this code has been reverted to no ignore this condition in later version of hivex - /* This error is seemingly common in uncorrupt registry files. */ - /* - fprintf (stderr, "hivex: %s:

This contains multiple large code refactorings (see previous patches posted on this list), plus, hopefully, a full fix for these bugs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=717583 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=987463 It's a (slightly) risky release and it could do with a lot of testing. I've also created a separate git repo of Windows registry hives:

Hivex is a small, self-contained C library for reading and writing Windows Registry "hive" binary files. I'm pleased to announce version 1.3.15 which you can get from: http://download.libguestfs.org/hivex/ Highlights of this release: - Improved performance by using a cache of iconv handles, especially when dumping out large hives (Hilko Hengen). - Add the ‘hivexregedit

Hilko, forwarding this to the mailing list. Please post patches over there.

I have moved all three repositories to new locations on github: https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs https://github.com/libguestfs/hivex https://github.com/libguestfs/febootstrap You don't need to reclone them (unless you want to).
