Flag --title selects operation on the title field instead of description. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libvirt-1.2.8-1.el7.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Here is help usage for command "virsh desc" with option --title: # virsh desc --help NAME desc - show or set domain's description or title SYNOPSIS desc <domain> [--live] [--config] [--current] [--title] [--edit] [[--new-desc] <string>]...

Issue following commands: [root@rhel7-b1 ~]# virsh desc rhel7 --title No description for domain: rhel7 [root@rhel7-b1 ~]# virsh desc rhel7 --title t1 Domain description updated successfully Actual results: 1. The prompt info point out "No description for domain: rhel7" and "Domain description updated successfully" Expected results: 1.

Here are about description info which should be different from title: # virsh desc rhel7_Test No description for domain: rhel7_Test # virsh desc rhel7_Test desc1 Domain description updated successfully # virsh desc rhel7_Test --title No description for domain: rhel7_Test # virsh desc rhel7_Test --title t1 Domain description updated successfully # virsh desc rhel7_Test --title t1
Fixed upstream: commit 78948e1c808d67648680be8c4814631abbf20d88 Author: Peter Krempa <pkrempa@redhat.com> Date: Wed Sep 10 10:46:41 2014 +0200 virsh: desc command in --title mode mentions description instead of title Tweak the messages so that they mention "title" rather than "description" when operating in title mode. Also fixes one missing "%s" before non-formatted gettext message. Before: $ virsh desc --title dom No description for domain: dom After: $ virsh desc --title dom No title for domain: dom v1.2.8-76-g78948e1
