[Libguestfs] Libguestfs for RHEL 7.5 preview repository

[Richard W.M. Jones]

As in previous years, I'm making an unofficial, unsupported, unsigned
yum repository containing a preview of the libguestfs and virt-v2v
RHEL 7.5 packages:

  https://people.redhat.com/~rjones/libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview/

PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT RED HAT SUPPORT ABOUT THESE PACKAGES.  If you
find any problems, contact the upstream mailing list directly by
emailing <libguestfs at redhat.com>

You will also find previews of augeas, hivex, OCaml 4.05, supermin,
virt-top and virt-what.  It should be possible to rebuild all of the
packages from the corresponding source RPMs, but if I've missed out
any dependency then let me know.


** To install **

(1) Create a file called /etc/yum.repos.d/libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview.repo
with the following content:

[libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview]
name=libguestfs	RHEL 7.5 preview
baseurl=https://people.redhat.com/~rjones/libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

(2) Install or upgrade libguestfs, virt-v2v etc:

# yum install libguestfs libguestfs-tools-c virt-v2v


** To go back to the supported packages **

(1) Uninstall libguestfs:

# yum remove libguestfs

(2) Delete /etc/yum.repos.d/libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview.repo

# rm /etc/yum.repos.d/libguestfs-RHEL-7.5-preview.repo

(3) Reinstall libguestfs from the ordinary RHN channels:

# yum install libguestfs libguestfs-tools-c virt-v2v
