Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu 12.10
Release: 12.10
libguestfs0: 1:1.18.5-2ubuntu1
In Ubuntu 12.10 the appliance creation script (update-guestfs-appliance)
and the libguestfs-test-tool are under libguestfs-tools.
I'm not sure this is a right choice. I think they should be under
libguestfs0 as they are in Debian. All the application that use the
library should work out of the box when you install them using "apt-get
install". For example guestmount has libguestfs0 as a dependency but
not liguestfs-tools. If you do:
apt-get install guestmount
you end up installing a program that does not work:
$ guestmount -a debian.raw -m /dev/sda1 --ro /mnt
libguestfs: error: cannot find any suitable libguestfs supermin, fixed or
old-style appliance on LIBGUESTFS_PATH (search path: /usr/lib/guestfs)
And the user needs to manually fix this by either installing libguestfs-
tools or downloading a binary appliance.
