Test this issue with virt-top-1.0.4-3.14.el6.x86_64.
Test this issue with steps in description.
In step3:
# virt-top
/root/.virt-toprc: could not parse 'ture' in init file: expecting true|false[root@5-10-yuping ~]#
The error message updated.But there is no return after the error message.It will display like above.
And I found if there is a space before one line,then run virt-top:
# cat .virt-toprc
# .virt-toprc virt-top configuration file
# generated on 2011-08-31 03:57:48 by root
delay 5
....
# virt-top
/root/.virt-toprc:4: configuration item ``'' ignored
virt-top will run successfully,but the error message still need to be updated.
I found the punctuation in error message is ``'',for example:
#virt-top
/root/.virt-toprc:5: configuration item ``ort'' ignored
I think maybe it should be "" or '',not ``''.
So I change the bug status to ASSIGNED.
