[Bug 538917] Re: xen-tools is not available in lucid
Axel: I tested the head of that repository. The output I am getting
seems a little bit concerning.
What I did:
$ sudo apt-get install mercurial libfile-slurp-perl libtext-template-perl
$ hg fetch http://noone.org/hg/xen-tools/
$ cd xen-tools
$ sudo make install
$ sudo xen-create-image --hostname dev --size 20G --swap 256M --memory 256M
--dhcp --lvm local
What I got:
Use of uninitialized value $CONFIG{dir} in concatenation (.) or string at
/usr/bin/xen-create-image line 1839.
The output directory for creating the xen configuration file within
doesn't exist:
Aborting.
So it seems that the script handles --dir incorrectly. If I specify lvm
in configuration, the trace goes away but the error remains the same. If
I additionally set dir, the empty space is filled with the target dir
but still an error.
Please do set up the PPA so that I will be informed about new changes.
I might look into the code a bit later.

Hi all, Xen-tools is a REQ for ubuntu-xen-server So if no xen-tools = no XEN support for ubuntu LTS server I think XEN is essential for a server class operation system. So #I though wouldn't expect to get it in Lucid anymore since Beta 1 is #already out. (... unless there is a strong urge in the release-team, #but I doubt that.) should not true, SO it SHOULD support xen in the LTS version. If it would not be a server or a LTS vesion, maybe it would be acceptable but not in the LTS... I think other xen users share my opinion.

Re: [Bug 538917] Re: xen-tools is not available in lucid
Hi, I do not speak for Ubuntu (I'm the currently the upstream developer and Debian package maintainer), but I probably know the answers to your questions anyway. udosoft wrote: why is http://xen-tools.org/software/xen-tools/xen-tools-4.1.tar.gz not an option? Because * it has been orphaned by its original author (Steve Kemp), and therefore * it has been removed from Debian unstable and testing, * it has many unfixed bugs, in Ubuntu as well as in Debian, * it has not seen any commits or bugfixes since 15 months, * it can't install any of the recent Ubuntu releases. why we need the 4.2rc1? Because that version * fixes many of these bugs, * will support current releases, * will be in Debian unstable soon, * has an active maintainer upstream (me). I can't imagine any reason why the release team would include a unsupported and horribly buggy 4.1 for LTS. And the chance that they will include a software in LTS which is still in development (4.2) and hasn't been in Beta 2 is IMHO very, very small. Additionally, to my knowledge nobody has really tried to get xen-tools in 10.04 -- and I won't do, because of the above given reasons. So if someone thinks to use that extremly small chance, that someone should take the appropriate steps because that extremly small chance is getting much smaller each day. I think the correct way to offer it for 10.04 LTS is via backports or a PPA. But also in that case I would need some Ubuntu users for caring and testing the package on Ubuntu and the PPA respectively backports.
