Description Christophe Fergeau 2014-09-03 10:27:51 UTC

libgovirt is going to be rebased to 0.3.1 in 7.1 in order to add foreign menu support to virt-viewer. This 0.3.1 release in turn depends on rest 0.7.92 as some needed new API (and bug fixes) were added in it.

The libgovirt 0.3.1 rebase is thus blocking on rebasing rest to 0.7.92.

If a rebase is not possible, backporting the needed patches would give:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~teuf/librest/log/?h=rhel-7.1 (untested yet though).

Comment 2 Christophe Fergeau 2014-09-05 09:28:40 UTC

The patch series at http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~teuf/librest/log/?h=rhel-7.1
- fix a few bugs 
- add a few new functions to the public API
- adjust librest behaviour when it generates the REST calls and with respect to logging to match better what libgovirt expects (this should have no impact on existing users).
- improve handling of 

These changes are needed in order to implement 'foreign menu' support in remote-viewer. 'foreign menu' makes it possible to change the content of the cdrom of a remote oVirt VM from remote-viewer UI.


The rebase introduces more bug fixes, fixes which will be needed to build this in RHEL6, fixes to the test suite, some build/documentation fixes
