I propose to have virt-dib included. The newer review request was published
few days ago:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2015-June/msg00105.html
virt-dib is an alternative engine for running diskimage-builder elements.
It allows to run them in a more secure way, providing isolation from the host
environment.
I didn't test the last revision, but I helped testing images generated with
the first versions; both plain images and more complex ones, like the images
used by OpenStack Sahara (few combination of operating systems and Hadoop
versions).
Few small errors can pop up of course with more testing, but I think that the
structure is fine. I can't comment on the code, though.
While I agree we should get this, what's the different between it
going into the supposedly stable 1.30 at the last second, versus 1.31?
Rich.
