Package: xen-tools
Version: 2.8-2
Severity: minor
I had some minor problems with xen-create-image that I could track to
two of the hooks called by xen-create-image.
The first one: hook 15-disable-hwclock.sh tries to chmod files without
checking their existence. While that's not a failure, the error message
annoyed me.
The second one: in our setup we use apt-proxy as a mirror not only for the
normal package repositories but for security.debian.org too. Therefore we
don't use a proxy setup. Consequently hook 20-setup-apt fails to get the
security updates. I changed this hook to copy /etc/apt/sources.list of
the Xen-Host instead of generating a fresh one. That way I get an
sources.list that fits into the environment we use.
