Meh, fixed upstream a long time ago, please backport. commit 69722fd7ac854f95eac65a4bf3fd86e65fbc470f Author: Stefan Bader <stefan.bader@canonical.com> Date: Fri Oct 7 09:56:32 2016 +0200 tools: Ignore newlines in libvirt-guests.sh guest list The list file expects all guest UUIDs on the same line as the URI which the guests run on. This does not happen when the list is echo'ed in quotes. When stripping the quotes, newlines get transformed into spaces. Without this, only the first guest on the list is actually handled.
