Well, like I said before, I'd be okay with changing the patch to preserve the original code if 'import virtinst' still works, and my new code would be how koan provisions libvirt VMs on fedora17 and newer. Presumably people on RHEL5 are updating cobbler but not virtinst, so they will be using the same old code paths. This would also mean I have to worry less about regressing everyone's systems, and only regressing for people that are also upgrading their host to another major OS (say f16->f17) However I would then recommend yall come up with a timetable of when to drop the old virtinst code for good, and make the virt-install impl the canonical way to provision libvirt guests, just to save yourself headaches. That would give you time to get out ample warnings, announce it loudly, etc. - Cole _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
