[Libguestfs] [PATCH 0/5] Introducing virt-builder-repository

Hi all, I wanted to provide an easy way to create or update a virt-builder repository out of a folder of template disk image files. This is what virt-builder-repository aims at. Some of the data are computed from the image file, others are asked the user or extracted from an existing index file. So far, virt-builder-repository doesn't run libguestfs on each image to extract the architecture, the list of available partitions and the list of volumes. May be this should be done, but I have several concerns with it: it will add extra running time to load the appliance in each detected new/updated image. And the question of how to handle cases where multiple OSes are installed on the template would need to be solved: raise an error or ask the user which one to use? In order to share more code, I have extracted the Yajl helpers with the yajl OCAML wrapper code, moved the libxml2 wrapper into mllib and written some OCAML osinfo db reading code in mllib.
