Fix for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1266918

This patch series fixes the way supermin sorts the list of installed packages when resolving a name, picking the right package for the host architecture.

Hi, few cleanups in the supermin codebase; no actual functional change.

Document what each module does, using *.mli files. Remove the --dtb option, it's obsolete. Rename modules according to their purpose. Rich.

Hello, I tried to install guestfish on my Fedora 29 and used the commands from documentation sudo dnf install libguestfs-tools but I got an error when I tried to execute run. You will find below logs below: ************************************************************ * IMPORTANT NOTICE * * When reporting bugs, include the COMPLETE, UNEDITED * output

The one that got upstream does not work in ibm-powerkvm due to the rpm_is_avaiable verification in the detection (I've attached the wrong version in bugzilla).

Hello. Maybe after work with FreeBSD I become too spoilt, but I expect that packages from one distribution kit works among themselves well. But that I see: $ rpm -qa | grep rpm rpm-libs-4.3.13_nonptl rpm-python-4.3.13_nonptl rpm-4.3.13_nonptl rpm-build-4.3.13_nonptl $python >>> import rpm ImportError /usr/lib/librpm-4.3.so: undefined symbol: rpm_execcon Thanks.

Hi, let's make supermin use /etc/os-release as primary source instead of the various release files in /etc; apparently distros (e.g. openSUSE) are starting removing them.

Hi, to ease debugging issues with appliances (e.g. when used in libguestfs), using --include-packagelist will add a file containing the list of all the packages used.

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

I just tried to get libguestfs to compile on Ubuntu 11.10 using the latest febootstrap, and the following patches were necessary for me. They are all just reasonable code cleanups *except* for patch 5/5 which is a gross hack for something I don't understand about how Ubuntu 11.10 multiarch support works. Rich.
