Add the possibility to choose which architecture use to build the wanted image (--arch). Since this implies that running commands on the guest is usually not possible when the architecture is different than the host one, another new option (--allow-foreign-arch-ops) allows to run commands nevertheless. The caching scheme is adapted to account for the architecture (with --print-cache showing the

Setting timezone is easy. It turns out to be almost impossible to set keyboard layout in virt-builder sanely, so I have added some examples instead. Coming up next, setting languages in virt-builder (clue: very very very hard). Rich.

Create a new directory (builder/template). Integrate all of the scripts into a single program, so that templates are generated more consistently. This also changes how the index file is generated. The script now generates the index file fragment and saves it under version control, and then generates the final index file by concatenating these. (Previously the index was written by hand which was

A common problem that people have with virt-builder and virt-sysprep is which guests that use SELinux, like Fedora and RHEL. In both cases we touch /.autorelabel in the guest, which means the guest has to reboot once during its first boot. Recap: SELinux file labels -------------------------- SELinux requires that files have labels. Access to a file is controlled by the label on that file.

Add an architecture field for all the entries in each index, so we know which architecture they are (not used right now, but will be in the future). The problematic part here is properly marking with the correct architecture: since we only know the current index on libguestfs.org contains x86_64/amd64 images, entries coming from it are marked that way; images in all the other indexes
