FYI, I just posted two pull requests on libguestfs/supermin One adds urpmi support. The other adds xz support to supermin. On Fri, Aug 16, 2013 at 3:58 PM, Richard W.M.

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

Hi, as pointed out by Neal Gompa, Mageia recently introduced dnf in the distribution (currently only in Cauldron, which is the future Mageia 6), and most probably it will replace urpmi in the future. As such, on Mageia make supermin prefer dnf over urpmi when found, using the same code already used for Fedora. Related change: make test-harder.sh work explicitly also on Mageia

Previous attempt: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2015-April/msg00013.html supermin needs to download packages (eg. RPMs) when preparing the appliance. After a lot of work, 'dnf download' can now be used as a replacement for the (deprecated) 'yumdownloader' program. This only affects the 'supermin --prepare' phase, which means it only affects people building

Hi Rich Kindly ignore my previos mail. I have downloaded the latest version of supermin supermin-5.1.8 and have compiled it for powerpc.Moreover there was no need to patch the src/ kernel.ml file as the changes were already implemented on the latest version. But still when i run libguestfs-test-tool on powerpc ubuntu,I get the below logs.. libguestfs-test-tool

Or even ... cat > /usr/lib64/guestfs/supermin.d/00-directories <<EOF /opt /opt/ibm /opt/ibm/powerkvm /usr /usr/share /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/pkvm /usr/share/doc/pkvm/licenses EOF -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Read my programming and virtualization blog: http://rwmj.wordpress.com Fedora Windows cross-compiler.

Hi I have compiled libguestfs-1.26.1 on powerpc ubuntu using supermin_5.1.8-2_powerpc.deb as it dependency package.
