[xen-tools-discuss] xen-tools 4.2.1 released

[Axel Beckert]

Hi,

I just tagged and pushed the xen-tools bugfix release 4.2.1, and
uploaded it to the website[1] as well as to Debian Unstable[2] and my
xen-tools PPA[3].

  [1] http://xen-tools.org/software/xen-tools/releases.html
  [2] http://packages.qa.debian.org/x/xen-tools.html (Should appear
      there within the next hours.)
  [3] https://launchpad.net/~xtaran/+archive/xen-tools (Should appear
      there within the next day or so.)

This release contains the following bug fixes:

* Fixes bashism in "editor" roles script. Thanks Raphaël Halimi for
  the patch! (http://bugs.debian.org/605203)

* Fixes missing architecture check in Debian Sarge amd64 special case.
  Thanks to Guillaume Pernot! (http://bugs.debian.org/611397)

* Changes the default Debian Sarge amd64 mirror to
  http://archive.debian.org/debian-amd64/.

* Allows --ip=auto again (http://bugs.debian.org/611407)

* Unmounts /proc and /dev/pts of the freshly installed DomU just
  before unmounting the disk image. (http://bugs.debian.org/588783)

JFTR: This release does not contain the preliminary fix for
http://bugs.debian.org/609673 (creates bad domU.cfg with "root" disk
not listed first) and is built from the "4.2" branch and not from the
master branch. As soon as we have a proper fix for that (or are sure
that this is the proper fix) it will be included in a release.
