As of now (2024-22-05) Xen with stubdom doesn't build because of a problem in the imported code. Been this way for about two weeks. Anyone else seeing this behavior?

Also, there is a lot of work happening on Xen in my development repo, thanks to @Serus. Check it out at: https://github.com/refutationalist/saur

I created a set of systemd service files and notes to integrate with Xen 4.2. They were tested with a virgin install of Arch + Xen4.2 AUR (base, base-devel, xen AUR tarball and dependencies). Hope you find them useful. Full details https://gist.github.com/a2b71e4a17fdf7bbcfc0

pyxml texlive-core and transfig are no longer dependencies. They have been replaced by 'markdown'. See the list of prerequisites in README of the current Xen 4.2 download. I have built AUR xen-docs using both methods and the same set of files are created.

Done.

Please add wget as dep.

Added your fixes. Btw, the symlinking issue can be fixed by adding PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 to the configure line (which I have done, obviously). The service file is a bit iffy, b/c it depends on the rc.d script. Will release a service file that's more "systemd-ish" soon.

Wow what a pain to build. I needed it running...I don't have the time to do it right but I had to: remove the dom0 compression patch (looks like it was merged) remove the xen patch (i'm not convinced that made a difference or not, but saved me going through rejects) corrected the arch init patch (hopefully I didn't break the init script...it still seems to work correctly) symlinked python2-config and python2 to python-config and python, respectively. Yikes. Build wouldn't find python2 libs otherwise, and doesn't work with python 3. This needs a better fix. installed yajl, git, and wget (building required them beyond dependencies in PKGBUILD) I put up a github repo so I could share a fixed PKGBUILD and archinit patch if anyone needs to build this https://github.com/iamb/arch-xen

Looks like someone made an attempt to update the PKGBUILD to 4.2. I gave it a quick go and the patching fails. I don't have time to look into it today but wanted to let people know what's going on ==> Starting build()... patching file tools/hotplug/Linux/init.d/xencommons Hunk #2 succeeded at 29 with fuzz 1.

So... nothing yet?

franciscod commented on 2012-10-03 02:27 (UTC)

Please add wget and python2 as deps, the build fails without them.
