Bug#541438: xen-shell: 'shutdown force' does not run 'xm destroy' because the command is missing 'sudo'

[Michael Howe]

Package: xen-shell
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,

The 'shutdown force' option of xen-shell attempts to run 'xm destroy'
rather than 'sudo xm destroy', which means that the destroy command
doesn't work.

This appears to be the case in xen-shell in both lenny and squeeze/sid.

Cheers,

Michael
