Comment 1 Cole Robinson 2009-12-10 19:01:52 UTC 
Providing prompting for virt-image will be a decent amount of work for not a lot of gain since I'm pretty sure this tool has near 0 users. I think the best thing to do will just be to hide the --prompt option (but not error out to maintain back compat).
Comment 2 Cole Robinson 2009-12-10 21:18:21 UTC 
Fixed upstream, should be an easy backport:
