Description Greg Nichols 2013-05-15 21:15:49 UTC 
Description of problem:

fv_tests on the guest don't run and are marked INCOMPLETE after an initial run.

The problem is a crash that occurs when the test (on the host) tries to initialize the data image for the run, and attempts to create a symlink that may already exist (v7-guest-script) and raise a "File Exists" exception.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
