Description Miroslav Rezanina 2016-01-12 07:59:33 UTC

qemu-guest-agent should be rebased to QEMU 2.5 that contains several important fixes. In addition, separation from qemu-kvm-rhev should be finished so no shared patches are used.

Comment 1 Miroslav Rezanina 2016-04-18 08:16:30 UTC

There's no important change in 2.6.0 so we won't rebase to 2.6 and stay with 2.5.0.

Comment 3 Marc-Andre Lureau 2016-05-25 15:49:55 UTC

There are 2 importants new features in 2.5.0:
1) guest-exec
2) qemu-ga.conf system configuration

I imagine for 1) we may want to blacklist it by default.

For 2), see discussion in #1101556 : nothing to change imho

Comment 4 Miroslav Rezanina 2016-05-27 05:52:29 UTC

Ok, (In reply to Marc-Andre Lureau from comment #3)

Ok, can you create BZ for this and prepare patch?

Agree, I moved BZ to modified and will add it to errata.
