We've moved to the newly-stable 4.20.0 branch. There are also other changes:

  • stubdom is fixed by disabling the vtmp and vtpmmgr components. This gets rid of a few source files and our remaining patches.
  • Debug files are only removed if the debug option is not set in makepkg.cfg (or the PKGBUILD itself)
  • pygrub has been removed
  • optdepends are adjusted for the upcoming xen-grub split package for the various Xen flavored builds.

If you're still using pygrub note that it is deprecated. The solution is to build PV grub instead, which used to be in AUR but is now missing. I am asking a couple questions on the mailing list, and I intend to put my current build of xen-grub (which supersedes xen-pvhgrub) on AUR as soon as possible. If you need to build it before that occurs, you can find it in my PKGBUILD repo.

EDIT: 4.20.0-2 adds support for the xen-edk2 package, which has a fixed UEFI for xen

Confirming 4.5.0-3 works fine for me. Good work, David!

FYI: the 4.5.0-3 update I pushed a couple of days ago or so does contain the patches for CVE-2015-3456 ( aka the Venom vulnerability )

gnutls 3.4.1-1 works too.

Updated Xen package build works for me with Kernel 4.0 and GNU utils 3.4.0

@pierrec - I disabled building of documentation because of the existance of the xen-docs package and because some people want to run their hypervisors very "light", without optional extras such as documentation. If that package doesn't get updated, and is still not orphaned, what I may have to do is add in the relevant changes into my PKGBUILD and just comment them out, so someone can always enable them if needed. @AuthurBorsboom - Will be today; I had a small checklist of things that I wanted to cover, which includes the ones you've mentioned, and i'm about ready to push the updated files.

Hi Kantras, AFAIK the following needs to be updated. - use of $srcdir - patch for gnutls Do you have an estimation of when you are able to publish the new PKGBUILD?

pierrec commented on 2015-05-06 08:48 (UTC)

Thanks for this package. But why do you --disable-docs? I suppose you do that to avoid extra deps? xen-docs is 4.4 so not that useful :p
