Hi, this series implements the first bits in v2v to convert Debian/Ubuntu (and derived) guests. The series does not complete the support (see known issues below), but all the patches here should be fit for review and inclusion. The series does not enable the conversion, yet. Known issues: * there is no grubby nor Bootloader::Tools Perl module available in Debian, so there is no way to know

Implement the 'remove', 'file_list_of_package', and 'file_owner' methods of the Linux module for the "deb" package manager (dpkg basically, on Debian and derived distributions). Also allow it for the main conversion code. --- v2v/convert_linux.ml | 2 +- v2v/linux.ml | 33 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 34 insertions(+), 1

This installs packages with QEMU Guest Agent when converting Linux machine. The packages should be available on guest tools ISO. The patches work "as-is" but probably deserve some more attention: - it is "abusing" Winows_virtio code but renaming/refactoring everything to remove "windows" from the name and use "guest tools" seems like a lot of unnecesary

Using update-initramfs is the native way of updating initrd on Debian based systems.

Linux.file_owner is not used by any other function, so remove it. Linux.is_file_owned is only used when removing kmod-xenpv on old RHEL releases, and so is only required to work for RPM. The old file_owner/is_file_owned functions were completely broken. This replaces them with a simpler, working implementation that only covers the narrow use case of removing kmod-xenpv non-owned directories.

Using update-initramfs is the native way of updating initrd on Debian based systems. To add some modules to the image we can list them in file /etc/initramfs-tools/modules.

v1 was here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-October/msg00183.html v2: - Adds back the Debian test, but simplified. - Adds tests on Fedora & Debian. Rich.

changes in v2: - moved copy_drivers above copy_files - renamed copy_files to copy_from_virtio_win - renamed install to install_local - use rpm instead of yum This installs packages with QEMU Guest Agent when converting Linux machine. The packages should be available on guest tools ISO. The patches work "as-is" but probably deserve some more attention: - it is "abusing"

changes in v3: - fix call to install_local changes in v2: - moved copy_drivers above copy_files - renamed copy_files to copy_from_virtio_win - renamed install to install_local - use rpm instead of yum This installs packages with QEMU Guest Agent when converting Linux machine.

Try to improve the way packages of VMware tools are removed from YUM-based guests: - when filtering the package itself from its providers, do a stricter check so either the provide is the unversioned package, or it is exactly its own name - if the package has no other providers, then going further will cause the invocation of 'yum install' with no packages, and thus the package

This is a sort of follow-up to the Linux_bootloaders patch. It turns out all the kernel detection code is nicely self- contained and can therefore be moved to its own module. Rich.

.. and a lot of refactoring. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1167623 Rich.

The bug is: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1161019 This makes a few other minor refactorings to the code. Rich.
