<div>While i am on the way updating xen-tools and rinse for opensuse 13.1 Our team members had created tested validated patches ..</div>
<div>Please review and comment on ..</div>
<div> </div>
<div>see -> <a href="https://github.com/remsnet/xen-tools/tree/master/opensuse13.1-patches" target="_blank">https://github.com/remsnet/xen-tools/tree/master/opensuse13.1-patches</a></div>

<div>patch Explains:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>xen-tools - With Linux standard base 2.3 and up some Distros as Opensuse 13.x and up moved /bin/ls and /bin/cp to /usr/bin.</div>
<div> Thus its now required to check /bin and /usr/bin , as well ist required to check and folow existing symlink - and fail _only_ if _none: are excetuable.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>rinse - With Opensuse 13.x and up xen-tools with rinse install methode failed - root cause :</div>
<div> As rinse sort rpms bevor unpack , but oss aaa_base _must_ installed _first_ to create and correct chroot core , users/group/shadow from aaa_base where not correctly depolyed first; witch then cause msgs like "invalid user root, ..."</div>
<div> </div>
<div>To Fix this on an generic way an configurable Prestage added that get exec between rinse´s rpm download from mirror and unpack rpms .</div>
<div>this exec scripts like /usr/lib/rinse/prestage/<distribution>.sh ,</div>
<div>where <distribution> simply linked with --distribution</div>
