I believe I found a missing dependancy with regards to the bison command.

I am using amd64 Debian Squeeze so I noticed two packages provide this command.

http://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=contents&keywords=bison&mode=path&suite=testing&arch=any

Which is advised bison or bison++

Thanks.

Hello,

I just added "bison" to the list of required Debian packages at:
http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/Xen4.0

Thanks!

Thanks for the report.

We ship the bison output files, so the idea is that there is no need
to have bison installed.  But the docs on the wiki should perhaps be
updated.

bison.

It appears that the flex package is also required for the flex command.

Hi Keir,

Could you backport xen-unstable 22092:e0ec7b10f8ce and apply the
attached patch? They are required in order to build 4.0.2-rc1 on ia64.

Notice: the attached patch is required only on xen-4.0-testing.
This issue was introduced by xen-4.0-testing 21300:8bdf09baff30
(xen-unstable 21886:578ed14c3c67),
 which required xen-unstable 21166:07befd9cf6d3.

Best regards,

BTW kernel 2.6.32- 30 was just uploaded to Debian unstable and includes proper fixes for the issues which my builds were fixing.

I am having similar success thus far with the Debian 2.6.32-29+xen0 kernel from the ianc (Ian Campbells) xenbits folder.

PV domUs that were working on 4.0.1 are working as expected in 4.0.2.

Additionally I was able to update my debian testing domUs to use grub2 as the msdos syntax is now recgonized :)

I just tried Xen 4.0.2-rc1 on one of my testboxes and I didn't find any problems.
I was running various PV domUs without problems.

I think they should be.  It would be rare that we deliberately
introduce new dependencies in a stable branch, and I don't recall
having done so for 4.0.

That's why I linked to the staging repository, not the main repository. It
will be auto-pushed to the latter when the automated tests pass. Could be
tomorrow before it appears in the main repo. You can just grab it from the
staging repo meanwhile.

I will be able to test the new release later today.

I did however notice as of 1:30PM -0500 that http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-4.0-testing.hg?tags was not reflecting the tag.

Please advise.

Should be unchanged since 4.0.1 I believe. We can update the readme or other
documentation if people find otherwise.

Are the dependancies unchanged from Xen 4.0?


Requirements for  building Xen 4.0 from source
New software packages required to compile the Xen  hypervisor/tools from source: iasl xz libs and headers to build pygrub with support for lzma compressed domU kernels. Note
to developers: Xen 4.0 can be built on RHEL5 / CentOS 5, but if you
want to modify the sources before building, then you need to have a
newer version of "flex" than what's included in the EL5 distributions!
For more information please see http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2010-03/msg00180.html  and http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-4.0-testing.hg?rev/3138b3885999 
Packages required for building from source
Packages
required to build Xen 4.0 from source on Fedora 11, 12, 13, 14 or 15,
in addition to all the usual development tools and libraries: yum groupinstall "Development Libraries"
yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
yum install transfig wget texi2html libaio-devel dev86 glibc-devel e2fsprogs-devel gitk mkinitrd iasl xz-devel bzip2-devel pciutils-libs pciutils-devel SDL-devel libX11-devel gtk2-devel bridge-utils PyXML qemu-common qemu-img mercurial
yum install glibc-devel.i686Required packages for Debian Lenny 5.0 & Squeeze 6.0 / Ubuntu 8.x & 9.x & 10.04: apt-get install bcc bin86 gawk bridge-utils iproute libcurl3 libcurl4-openssl-dev bzip2 module-init-tools transfig tgif texinfo texlive-latex-base texlive-latex-recommended texlive-fonts-extra texlive-fonts-recommended pciutils-dev mercurial build-essential make gcc libc6-dev zlib1g-dev python python-dev python-twisted libncurses5-dev patch libvncserver-dev libsdl-dev libjpeg62-dev iasl libbz2-dev e2fslibs-dev git-core uuid-dev ocaml libx11-devIf you have a 64bit version of Debian/Ubuntu you also need this additional package: apt-get install gcc-multilib 
Also
note that in Debian/Ubuntu you'll need "xz-utils" (the new version of
lzma library) to be able to build pygrub with support for lzma
compressed kernels!: apt-get install xz-utils
