Thanks Douglas for your contribution, I have pushed all three patches: http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=commitdiff;h=e99ac0394acbba292... http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=commitdiff;h=5cab0d6c807d8a3bf... http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=commitdiff;h=f07a0b6f1e01f12db... I would like to note that this Perl code is obsolete. It is still used by virt-v2v, but not by any other code. In libguestfs >= 1.6 all core inspection code was rewritten in C and is available to all languages. See: http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=blob;f=src/inspect.c;hb=HEAD Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines. Tiny program with many powerful monitoring features, net stats, disk stats, logging, etc. http://et.redhat.com/~rjones/virt-top
