In no particular order. Some of these need further investigation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I had to patch libguestfs not to use febootstrap-supermin-helper --copy-kernel option. See attachment #1. This could be avoided by providing a newer febootstrap in Wheezy. I had to patch libguestfs to make it not use the (not working) virtio-scsi in old kvm. See attachment #2. mdadm is missing as a dependency from the Debian package. test_mke2fs_0 fails: this seems to be a bug in libguestfs block device renaming code: libguestfs: trace: mke2fs "/dev/sda2" "blocksize:4096" "journaldevice:/dev/sda1" "fstype:ext2" libguestfs: send_to_daemon: 276 bytes: 00 00 01 10 | 20 00 f5 f5 | 00 00 00 04 | 00 00 01 70 | 00 00 00 00 | ... guestfsd: main_loop: proc 368 (mke2fs) took 4.52 seconds guestfsd: main_loop: new request, len 0x110 /dev/sda2: No such file or directory mke2fs -b 4096 -J device=/dev/sda1 -t ext2 /dev/vda2 mke2fs 1.42.5 (29-Jul-2012) test_tune2fs* fail because the output (username) expected by the test script is different from what the test expects. This is not important and this test should just be skipped. For some reason, the behaviour of vfat with the utf8 option is different from the same driver in the Fedora kernel. The Debian kernel prints this warning: [ 65.576097] FAT-fs (vda1): utf8 is not a recommended IO charset for FAT filesystems, filesystem will be case sensitive! and indeed the resulting filesystem is case sensitive, which is definitely not expected or correct for vfat. It's probably some kernel config option. The udev rule (appliance/99-guestfs-serial.rules) either isn't being installed or doesn't work for some reason. I didn't look into it, but this breaks /dev/disk/guestfs/<label> disk names (see 7786d56db8c2241). tests/regressions/rhbz690819.sh fails, because either the kernel or qemu doesn't support the IDE interface. This will break virt-v2v.
