Xen devel - Feb 2012 - arch linux xen 4.2 no network

I just created arch linux xen 4.2 unstable package so it compiled fine and
installs fine. When I run xl create it starts vm. I have vif devices
created but they don''t attach to bridget that are created on startup .
I
have xenbr0 and xenbr1 created.
If I run this I get vifi attached ro bridge. Is this xl issue or python.
# export vif=vif1.0
# export XENBUS_PATH=/local/domain/0/backend/vif/1/0
(found with `xl network-list`)
# export bridge=br0
# /etc/xen/scripts/vif-bridge add
# /etc/xen/scripts/vif-bridge online
It seems that xen has to be compileg with python 2.7 . I wonder if this
well known bug are there any patches.

Do you have the udev rules installed in the right place?

This is neither of the bridge names which you stated above.

If your bridge is called "br0" then you probably need
"bridge=br0" in
your vif configuration line or to set "defaultbridge"
in /etc/xen/xl.conf.
