similar to: [PATCH 0/3] fix setting lvm filter with newer lvm2

v2 of previous patch, which fixes some missing bits. For now I'm going to go with Pino's RHEL 7.1 patch, since it is at least smaller than this. So I'm sending this to the list just to have it archived for later. Rich.

v3: - Don't remove the LVM transform.

Simplify how we handle lvm.conf.

Augeas 1.7.0 was released a couple of days ago. By encouraging everyone to upgrade to this we can drop several calls to aug_transform and also our custom copies of two lenses, and a lot of related code. Rich.

Don't carry around Augeas lenses. It is fragile, since if the lens is added to upstream Augeas but the version number has not changed, then Augeas won't parse the target file at all. This specifically causes password adjustments to fail in RHEL 7.1. In future, if we need an Augeas lens, it must be added to Augeas, either upstream or as a downstream patch carried around by distros. ---

Hi, this series improves the way LVM is used in the appliance: in particular, now lvmetad can eventually run at all, and with the correct configuration. Also improve the listing strategies. Changes in v2: - dropped patch #5, will be sent separately - move lvmetad statup in own function (patch #2) Thanks, Pino Toscano (4): daemon: lvm-filter: set also global_filter daemon: lvm-filter:

Hi ,all : thanks for helping me ! I am using libguestfs-1.28.1 on ubuntu 12.04 to manage vm disk created by KVM. I downloaded libguestfs-1.28.1.tar.gz ,and then executed (1) ./autogen.sh (2) ./configure (3) make (4) make check .there is the error. /usr/Libvmi/libguestfs-1.28.1/run --test guest-aux/make-fedora-img.pl md_create: feature 'mdadm' is not available in this

If add_string_nodup fails free the passed string instead of leaking it, as that string would have been owned by the stringbuf.

Hi, currently /etc/shadow is edited manually when needed (i.e. when setting the password for an user), and it is not changed when removing users. Import the upstream shadow.aug (currently in their development serie, but not part of any released version yet), and use it only when the augeas version is less than a potential 1.2.1 (covering also the case when the new version is just 1.3.0). Pino

Tested with 'make check-release'. tests/parallel (in check-slow) failed, although it does regularly and that seems to be because of libvirt. Rich.

These 2 patches are mostly code motion. They were prompted by an apparent augeas error in BZ 613967 which didn't display useful error message. The error seems to happen in Converter::Linux. GuestOS::RedHat had a handy function which displayed verbose augeas error messages. This function moves into the new module where it can be used by both modules. The second patch is an consequential tidy
