[Libguestfs] [PATCH 5/5] New tool: virt-ls
The code uses die "prog: ...\n".
The parameters to virt-tar are swapped so they always go in source ->
destination order, ie:
virt-tar -zx myguest /home home.tar.gz
virt-tar -zu myguest uploadstuff.tar.gz /tmp
and these parameters are checked for sanity which should make it
harder to make mistakes. (The guest name still has to come first
because of other limitations).

virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines. Boot with a
live CD or over the network (PXE) and turn machines into Xen guests.
