It isn't libvirt's job to escape the query string - it just receives the XML document which must already be valid. If you're using virt-install APIs for building the XML document, then it is virt-install's job to do attribute escaping. This was broken in RHEL-5.1 and is fixed for 5.2 and Fedora 8 onwards https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=417051 Dan. -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, Boston -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :| _______________________________________________ et-mgmt-tools mailing list et-mgmt-tools@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/et-mgmt-tools
