I'm going to be out of contact from next week until the beginning of March. libguestfs and the virt tools will obviously keep going without me, but I'm just sending this note to say that I have put mirrors for the following git repositories up in case the primary git repo has any problems.

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

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

The machine at et.redhat.com is going to be decommissioned soon, and so I have arranged alternate hosting for these two git repositories. As of now you should use: http://git.annexia.org/?p=febootstrap.git;a=summary (web interface) git clone git://git.annexia.org/git/febootstrap.git http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=summary (web interface) git clone

The command*() functions are sane wrappers we use in the daemon to run external commands, and therefore very important. These two patches enhance these functions in useful ways. (Note these are an internal interface which we can change at any time). The first patch adds variations which take a flags parameter, and implements a useful flag (for dealing with parted). The second patch stops

This set adds support for recursively deleting a node and everything under it (ie. all subkeys, values, SKs etc). I've checked this works, both using my own reverse-engineering tools and using Windows 7 regedit.

This is part 1 (updated) and part 2 of the three part patch set to provide tools for merging Windows Registry entries in the 'regedit' textual format. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=575738 Using the low-level hivexregedit tool I was able to merge the registry entries described in the following article into an existing 'system' registry hive file:

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).

This patch is FYI as it needs more testing, although feel free to take a look at it if you want. Background: We'd like to change libguestfs so that the appliance can support optional features. This would mean you could have (for example) a 'libguestfs' base package and a 'libguestfs-xfs' package providing optional support for XFS filesystem tools. This would only apply to

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

My aim is to get to the stage where we can start the daemon and run it under Wine. By using a dummy QEMU wrapper[1] we can have the daemon be run from a real Linux libguestfs program. It'll be running on the same machine (not in an appliance) and it'll be running under Wine, not Windows, but that's good enough to start testing the XDR protocol and some simple commands. It's very

Builds in Koji currently fail with: /sbin/udevsettle missing or unknown command which means that we don't wait long enough after partitions etc have been created. In Fedora >= 12, we shouldn't use /sbin/udevsettle. It's been deprecated in favour of 'udevadm settle'. The relevant code is:
