[PATCH] packagelist: add initviocons package on SUSE
initviocons package provides tools to resize the terminal. Having it in the appliance will allow SUSE users to have proper line wrapping in their terminal when using virt-rescue. --- appliance/packagelist.in | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/appliance/packagelist.in b/appliance/packagelist.in index f278f66..bbbe4b2 100644 --- a/appliance/packagelist.in +++ b/appliance/packagelist.in @@ -139,6 +139,7 @@ ifelse(SUSE,1, glibc-locale gptfdisk hivex + initviocons iproute2 iputils libcap2 -- 2.10.2

This patch is fine, ACK. I don't know if you're doing this already, but in Fedora we split up the appliance dependencies like this: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/libguestfs.git/tree/libguestfs.spec#... If you install the 'libguestfs-rescue' subpackage, you get the extra dependencies (iputils, lsof, etc) added to virt-rescue. If not, there are fewer dependencies.

We aren't doing that yet. May be we'll need to come up with something in that vein sooner or later. -- Cedric
