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

I have an EFI motherboard and am running Arch 2013_05 x86_64. I am trying to build xen.efi and I have applied the Python workaround and rebuilt binutils-multilib with --enable-targets=X86_64-pep. The output of ld -V is: GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.23.2 Supported emulations: elf_x86_64 elf32_x86_64 elf_i386 i386linux elf_l1om elf_k1om i386pep i386pe However when I build xen i get: mv: cannot stat âetc/init.dâ: No such file or directory ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package(). Aborting... Build logs here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/66245999/xen-4.2.2-1-x86_64-prepare.log https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/66245999/xen-4.2.2-1-x86_64-build.log https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/66245999/xen-4.2.2-1-x86_64-package.log Can someone please assist?

Can it be an optional dependency? I'd really rather not have bluetooth stuff installed on my server, and it would get much more annoying to strip out if it became a rolled-in dep in a community package.

A quick grep over the source tree shows that the qemu pieces have config options for bluez

zootboy commented on 2013-05-12 17:50 (UTC)

Is there a reason why bluez is a dependency? I don't use it at all, and I have yet to see any issues with my install where I removed it.

It sounds like great idea why not wait for 4.3 to be final

kantras commented on 2013-05-12 17:04 (UTC)

@gtmanfred - No objection from me

gtmanfred commented on 2013-05-12 07:07 (UTC)

also, python 2.7.5 was just tagged, it should fix the pyargs parsetuple bug

gtmanfred commented on 2013-05-12 06:40 (UTC)

I would like to move this into community along with xe-guest-utilities, any objections? Thanks

Ok, installed and is working. One thing of note for anyone using VT-d and AMD processors - There has been some work done on the IOMMU code, due to security issues. This means that the code is much less forgiving if you have a BIOS with bugs and/or bad entries. There are some flags that you can add to the grub line, which may help re-enable VT-d support, but not in all cases (The BIOS in my test machine is missing IOAPIC entries from the IVRS table, and the grub config options won't work for that type of issue. I've opened a support request with the vendor but i've not had much success in the past with support tickets)

I noticed that v4.2.2 has been released. I've just done a quick compile test (Updated the version numbers, commented out the 'gcc-4.8-typedefs.patch' patch as is appears not to be needed, then recreated the hashes) and made sure that the existing PKGBUILD was able to build the new 4.2.2 package. It built without issue and will be installing it on my test server tomorrow to make sure its working correctly.
