Description Richard W.M. Jones 2015-04-17 11:03:16 UTC

Description of problem:

It should be possible to do:

  virt-builder --touch /.autorelabel fedora-21

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

libguestfs-1.29.36-1.fc23.x86_64

Comment 1 Richard W.M. Jones 2015-04-17 11:04:06 UTC

A workaround for creating empty files is:

  virt-builder --write /.autorelabel:

but that isn't exactly the same as what the touch command does.
