virt-filesystems -v -x output

Full output from the command:

virt-filesystems -d Ubuntu1010x64 --long --all -h -v -x

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2011-01-07 22:43:41 UTC
/dev/vda2 is an extended partition (containing a logical
partition which is the swap).  Therefore it doesn't make
sense to run guestfs_vfs_label on it.  We should just ignore
the result of vfs_label if it's an error.

Comment 3 Richard W.M. Jones 2011-01-08 10:14:39 UTC
Reproducer:

$ guestfish -N part exit
$ virt-filesystems -a test1.img --all --long -h
libguestfs: error: vfs_label: /dev/vda1: 

When the bug is fixed it produces the following output instead:

$ guestfish -N part exit
$ virt-filesystems -a test1.img --all --long -h
