ELSA-2011-0586 - libguestfs security, bug fix, and enhancement update

Type:	SECURITY
Impact:	LOW
Release Date:	2011-05-29

Description

[1.7.17-17]
- Remove dependency on gfs2-utils.
resolves: rhbz#695138

[1.7.17-16]
- Canonicalize /dev/vd* paths in virt-inspector code.
resolves: rhbz#691724

[1.7.17-15]
- Fix trace segfault for non-daemon functions.
resolves: rhbz#676788

[1.7.17-14]
- Add explicit BuildRequires for latest augeas. (RHBZ#677616)

[1.7.17-13]
- Rebuild to pick up new augeas lens (RHBZ#677616)

[1.7.17-12]
- Fix typo in virt-make-fs manual page.
resolves: rhbz#673721
- Add a grep-friendly string to LIBGUESTFS_TRACE output.
resolves: rhbz#673477

[1.7.17-11]
- Only runtime require febootstrap-supermin-helper (not whole of
febootstrap) (RHBZ#669840).

[1.7.17-10]
- Remove external hexedit script and make guestfish users set .
This is because requiring emacs pulls in all of X (RHBZ#641494).

[1.7.17-9]
- Fix: guestfish fails when guest fstab entry does not exist (RHBZ#668611).

[1.7.17-8]
- Backport patches up to upstream 1.8.1. (RHBZ#613593)
- Fixes:
* guestfish: fails to tilde expand '~' when /home/ksharma unset (RHBZ#617440)
* libguestfs: unknown filesystem /dev/fd0 (RHBZ#666577)
* libguestfs: unknown filesystem label SWAP-sda2 (RHBZ#666578)
* libguestfs: unknown filesystem /dev/hd{x} (cdrom) (RHBZ#666579)
* virt-filesystems fails on guest with corrupt filesystem label (RHBZ#668115)
* emphasize 'libguestfs-winsupport' in error output (RHBZ#627468)

[1.7.17-4]
- Backport patches up to upstream 1.8.0 _except_ for:
* changes which require febootstrap 3.x
* changes which were only relevant for other distros

[1.7.17-3]
- New upstream version 1.7.17, rebase for RHEL 6.1 (RHBZ#613593).
- Require febootstrap >= 2.11.
- Split out new libguestfs-tools-c package from libguestfs-tools.
. This is so that the -tools-c package can be pulled in by people
wanting to avoid a dependency on Perl, while -tools pulls in everything
as before.
. The C tools currently are: cat, df, filesystems, fish, inspector, ls,
mount, rescue.
. libguestfs-tools no longer pulls in guestfish.
- guestfish no longer requires pod2text, hence no longer requires perl.
- guestfish also depends on: less, man, vi, emacs.
- Add BR db4-utils (although since RPM needs it, it not really necessary).
- Runtime requires on db4-utils should be on core lib, not tools package.
- Change all 'Requires: perl-Foo' to 'Requires: perl(Foo)'.
- New manual pages containing example code.
- Ship examples for C, OCaml, Ruby, Python.
- Don't ship HTML versions of man pages.
- Rebase no-fuse-test patch to latest version.
- New tool: virt-filesystems.
- Rename perl-libguestfs as perl-Sys-Guestfs (RHBZ#652587).
- Remove guestfs-actions.h and guestfs-structs.h. Libguestfs now
[header file.]
- Add AUTHORS file from tarball.

[1.6.2-4]
- New upstream stable version 1.6.2, rebase for RHEL 6.1 (RHBZ#613593).
- Remove previous patches which are now all upstream and in this new version.
- BR febootstrap 2.10 (RHBZ#628849).
- BR cryptsetup-luks for new LUKS encryption support.
- ocaml-xml-light{,-devel} is no longer required to build.
- guestfish is no longer dependent on virt-inspector.
- Require the ruby package.
- Disable PHP and Haskell bindings in configure (they wouldn't build anyway,
but this will help people building from source).
- Set sysconfdir in configure.
- --enable-debug-command is no longer required by configure script.
- New command 'virt-make-fs'.
- Include virt-inspector2, upstream replacement for virt-inspector.
- Provide hexedit replacement script for guestfish.
- BR autotools, and rerun after applying patches.
