[xen-tools-dev] Xen-Tools Fixes & Gentoo

[Reto Gantenbein]

Hello everybody

Since a while I'm using xen-tools to automatically generate Xen domU
images. Thanks a lot to the authors to write this handy tool. I'm very
happy now that there is a new development effort around it. I made some
interesting enhancements to the setup process that I would like to share
in the future. 

I'm not really sure what's the default approach to hand-in patches since
I'm not yet very familiar with git. So I would like to just start with
two small patches that are attached to this mail. 

The first patch is xen-create-image_typos.patch is fixing various typos
in the source code. I saw that there already have been a lot fixes since
the 4.1 release, nevertheless some got missed.

The second patch is xen-create-image_fix-version.patch. This patch fixes
the output of 'xen-create-image --version'. It wrongly tries to printout
some guest host information per default.

On the mailing list archive I saw that you are unsure about the Gentoo
support of xen-tools. I'm a Gentoo user and very familiar with Gentoo
and the xen-tools, so I will have a look at it in the coming days.

Kind regards,
Reto
