Change distro in the output formally known as virt-inspector to reflect the actual distro. Possible values are now: fedora, rhel, centos, scientific, debian.
Add new distrofamily entry which is one of: redhat, debian. Currently all distros except 'debian' are in the redhat family.
This allows you to, for example, select a RHEL/CentOS/Scientific Linux specific kernel for installation rather than assuming they're all the same.
IMHO doing this is a big mistake. This is what we did for virt-install and hugely regret it. Things just don't fall into a nice hierarchy. We are now looking at doing a flat list of distros + tagging/categorization relationships to be defined. http://www.redhat.com/archives/et-mgmt-tools/2009-June/msg00018.html Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :|
