Hi,
I believe the package is ready:
http://ftparchive.gplhost.com/debian/pool/lenny/main/x/xen-qemu-dm-3.4/xen-qemu-dm-3.4_3.4.2-1.dsc
I asked Ian Jackson to sponsor it (he works for Citrix and is a DD), but
it's been 2 weeks, and he seems busy with work.
I'd be glad if someone was sponsoring the upload of this package in
Debian SID, soon enough so that people will be able to test it before
Squeeze is out.
A bit of information about this package:
- I have asked stuffs and got answers about them form the xen-devel list
and the person responsible for the Xen qemu-dm (Stefano Stabellini
<stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>), and got answers to all of them
- my package is using the start of a package that Bastian gave to me.
It's lintian clean, and I believe it is production ready.
- Christian Motschke <christian@xxxxxxxxxxx> tested it, and reported it
is working as expected with Xen 3.4.
- There's currently a dependency to qemu-system as it holds the keymaps.
I asked however that the keymaps are shipped separately, in a smaller
package, so that my package has a smaller installed footprint. Until
then, I believe it's fine to depend on qemu-system (even if it pulls too
much things, it's not really bothering).
Thomas
P.S: By the way, are there plans to have Xen 4.0.0 included in Squeeze,
is it already too late, or too early to be able to tell? Maybe in
Experimental? If I'm not mistaking, there's also a new version of Qemu
for Xen that would be needed.
