RHEA-2011:0792 - Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

An enhanced libguestfs-winsupport package is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The libguestfs-winsupport package adds support for Windows guests to libguestfs,
a set of tools and libraries allowing users to access and modify virtual machine
(VM) disk images.

This updated libguestfs-winsupport package adds the following enhancement:

• The libguest-winsupport package depended on the entire febootstrap package.

Since the febootstrap package was split into the febootstrap package and
febootstrap-supermin-helper packages, libguest-winsupport now depends only on
the febootstrap-supermin-helper package, which contains the runtime part of the
original febootstrap package. (BZ#670299)

In addition, this update fixes the following bug:

• The debuginfo subpackage contained no data and has been removed. (BZ#691555)

Users of libguestfs-winsupport are advised to upgrade to this updated package,
which adds this enhancement and fixes this bug.
