[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#500557: xen-utils-3.0.3-1: pygrub boot not working

[Valentin Vidic]

Package: xen-utils-3.0.3-1
Version: 3.0.3-0-4
Severity: normal


Booting with pygrub doesn't work. First problem is the path to
libraries (/usr/lib/python is used instead of
/usr/lib/xen-3.0.3-1/lib/python):

$ /usr/lib/xen-3.0.3-1/bin/pygrub
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/xen-3.0.3-1/bin/pygrub", line 25, in ?
    import grub.GrubConf
ImportError: No module named grub.GrubConf


In addition to that, ext2 filesystem support is not compiled in:

$ ls /usr/lib/xen-3.0.3-1/lib/python/grub/fsys
__init__.py  __init__.pyc

This can be solved by adding e2fslibs-dev to the list of build deps.
