Description Eric Blake 2010-04-08 17:30:20 UTC
Description of problem:
virt-inspector spat out several suspicious messages, before exiting with non-zero status, when inspecting an existing rawhide guest image


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
$ virt-inspector --verseion
1.0.85


How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Using the LiveCD for F13 virtualization test day, with a mount to see my existing guest images on the host machine
2. virt-inspector /sysroot/libvirt/images/rawhide.img
  
Actual results:
Most of the command is okay, but the first line is suspicious, and the final line demonstrated the problem:

$ virt-inspector /sysroot/libvirt/images/rawhide.img
No grub default specified at /usr/lib/perl5/Sys/Guestfs/Lib.pm line 1646.
linux fedora i386 14 on /dev/vg_vmrawhide/lv_root:
  Mountpoints:
    /dev/vg_vmrawhide/lv_root      /
    /dev/sda1                      /boot
    /dev/vg_vmrawhide/lv_swap      swap
...
    mesa-libGL 7.8
    gok 2.30.0
  Kernels:
Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at /usr/bin/virt-inspector line 411.
$ echo $?
11

Expected results:
reasonable information, and exit status of 0


Additional info:
reproduced on other images as well (F13, Windows 2k8):
$ virt-inspector /sysroot/libvirt/images/windows_2008.img

Comment 1 Richard W.M. Jones 2010-04-08 17:49:08 UTC
I believe that this change:
http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=commitdiff;h=ed6fc794c8a2f64f8b987137b54551f4380177f3
fixes the "undefined value as an ARRAY reference" error.
It just missed version 1.0.85.

The warning about "no grub default" is still in the code,
and should be made less scary.

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2010-04-08 18:34:53 UTC
I removed this warning upstream as it is fairly
useless for the end user:
