Keeping workarounds forever shouldn't be an option. It's tricky where users' non-volatile storage is concerned though. Other than that I would say the bug should be fixed immediately. Is there an easy way to detect with reasonable reliability whether we have an old or new image? Failing that we may have to provide a tool to convert old images to new format. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
