[Bug 758743] New: libvirt/virt-manager/kvm chokes on coma in name
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=758743 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=758743#c0 Summary: libvirt/virt-manager/kvm chokes on coma in name Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: jfehlig@suse.com ReportedBy: lnussel@suse.com QAContact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- I have VM called "openSUSE 11.4 (i586, GNOME)". Now when I run it I get an exception stating 'Unknown subargument GNOME) to -name '. I guess there's some quoting missing somewhere. virt-manager does accept comas in names but rejects other chracters like '/'. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Have a look at how qemu-kvm command looks like: -<option> subarguments, subarguments..., so GNOME is parsed as subargument instead of part of the name. ;) Although we may consider \, should work. however, qemu-kvm doesn't take it into consideration, so this kind of name just won't work for qemu-kvm. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

However, I don't think it deserves the effort to handle this. So, I suggest we just close it as won't fix.. Feel free to comment if you have any ideas. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I'll have to talk to upstream about this. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There was no consensus on a fix, along with a bunch of bikeshedding, so I'd rather not waste more of my limited time on this issue. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
