This is the lack of a Xen kernel again: r...@gill:~# uname -a Linux gill 2.6.28-11-server #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 02:45:36 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
So, Ubuntu's not had a xen kernel since 8.04 (a year). If installing the one from Hardy works, then why is this not packaged as the default? There is an expectation that installing ubuntu-xen-server will result in a working xen setup. By leaving broken dependencies (no xen kernel, and python2.5 missing) ubuntu is surprising it's users unecessarily. There are two paths to fix this: 1) fix the dependencies or 2) remove the ubuntu-xen-server package completely and the broken promise it represents. Right now, I've got a choice of going back to 8.04 LTS where there are other very old bugs like #235773 Virt-install fails on Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop Dom0 (amd64) awaiting attention, or to try and cobble something together in Jaunty. I'd rather put my efforts towards supporting the new release I think. Who's working on this, and can I get involved? I need it fixed and I'm willing to help. -- ubuntu-xen-server installs, but complains that it needs Python 2.5 in Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/351943 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
