The former libguestfs.org website was running on an old server in a cellar with "Beware of the Leopard" on the door. The server was overdue for retirement and is about to be decommissioned. I have moved and split up the hosting as follows: * The main website http://libguestfs.org is on a temporary server. The medium term plan is to move it to Openshift, but I've been having a

I'm tracking Fedora 18 & Rawhide issues that stop libguestfs from working here (that is, for non-libguestfs bugs): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=910270 (Fedora 18) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=910269 (Rawhide) (Note the dependent bug lists aren't complete yet) Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones

Policycoreutils, which includes the 'setfiles' utility which we use, is badly broken in Fedora 26. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1433577 This bug affects a few things because it completely breaks SELinux relabelling. In particular, firstboot functionality fails on Fedora guests because the installed scripts are not labelled correctly. Rich. -- Richard Jones,

libguestfs is a set of tools for reading and modifying disk images and virtual machines. virt-v2v and virt-p2v are tools for converting guests from foreign hypervisors (especially VMware, Xen), or physical machines, to run on KVM (eg. virt-manager, OpenStack/RHOS or oVirt/RHEV). This is just a heads-up about some changes to the way libguestfs and related packages will be packaged in RHEL 7.2.

We dropped support for gtk-doc in the current development branch (1.37). It was the slowest part of the build and added nothing of value. I replaced it with a guestfs-gobject manual page[1] which, along with the regular documentation, explains the topic of building gobject bindings much more clearly. http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-gobject.3.html In the meantime GNOME dropped a feature of

[Since Hilko asked me about this on IRC ...] The current plan is to rebase libguestfs in RHEL 6.3: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=719879 I would like to get as many features from upstream libguestfs into this as possible, but also make sure they have been well-tested by Fedora users. Also there are some new tools arriving in libguestfs upstream in the current development branch

This is now complete and soon the new packages will be merged into Fedora Rawhide: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-2e0b2d6395 A few non-critical packages failed to build, and I will look at these later unless someone gets around to it before me.

http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=commitdiff;h=60d5a50f4d3d9e2c2f5a7d42a6859de709bda3f6 Originally I had the daemon directory use a separate configure script, because we thought we would recompile the daemon for multiple different architectures, so that we could have libguestfs able to run commands in guests which have a different architecture from the host. Well, that didn't really
