As in previous years, I'm making an unofficial, unsupported, unsigned
yum repository containing a preview of the libguestfs and virt-v2v
RHEL 7.5 packages:
https://people.redhat.com/~rjones/libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview/
PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT RED HAT SUPPORT ABOUT THESE PACKAGES. If you
find any problems, contact the upstream mailing list directly by
emailing <libguestfs(a)redhat.com>
You will also find previews of augeas, hivex, OCaml 4.05, supermin,
virt-top and virt-what. It should be possible to rebuild all of the
packages from the corresponding source RPMs, but if I've missed out
any dependency then let me know.
** To install **
(1) Create a file called /etc/yum.repos.d/libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview.repo
with the following content:
[libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview]
name=libguestfs RHEL 7.5 preview
baseurl=https://people.redhat.com/~rjones/libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
(2) Install or upgrade libguestfs, virt-v2v etc:
# yum install libguestfs libguestfs-tools-c virt-v2v
** To go back to the supported packages **
(1) Uninstall libguestfs:
# yum remove libguestfs
(2) Delete /etc/yum.repos.d/libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview.repo
# rm /etc/yum.repos.d/libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview.repo
(3) Reinstall libguestfs from the ordinary RHN channels:
# yum install libguestfs libguestfs-tools-c virt-v2v
