oneiric symlink in xen-tools missing

[Kloana]

the symlink in /usr/lib/xen-tools/oneiric.d to /usr/lib/xen-tools/karmic.d is missing. There is also a link in debootstrap missing to install oneiric with xen-tools.

This problem happens with default oneiric installation as Dom0.

[Kloana (kloana)]

/usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/oneiric is also missing

[Axel Beckert (xtaran)]

cdebootstrap in Debian Sid doesn't support oneiric yet either.

I just fixed the xen-tools part of the issue upstream in xen-tools:
https://gitorious.org/xen-tools/xen-tools/commit/85d8a3b338f270dc68a7537e4ee97da1c6519293

I'll very likely release xen-tools 4.2.2 as soon as either debootstrap or cdebootstrap support oneiric, too, i.e. as soon as I can test it. :-)

Hmm, debootstrap should be fixed in some some versions of Ubuntu, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debootstrap/+bug/807974

On which version of Ubuntu did you try to use xen-tools?

[Kloana (kloana)]

was testet with default oneiric Beta snapshot,....

[Axel Beckert (xtaran)]

Ok, forget my comments about debootstrap Debian Sid, I tested on a box which is running Debian Stable in the meanwhile and the debootstrap there is too old... :-/

Working on getting xen-tools to build oneiric DomUs....

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

This was dealt with in debootstrap ages ago.

debootstrap (1.0.29) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * Support bootstrapping oldstable. (Lenny could already be bootstrapped
    using that suite name.)

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Add (Ubuntu) oneiric as a symlink to gutsy.
