Re: New virt-manager release v0.2.0

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



FYI, as of this morning, RPMs for virt-manager 0.2.0 are available in
the Fedora Rawhide repository (aka fedora-devel.repo in your yum configs)
so this is on track for appearing in Fedora Core 6 test3. There is also
now a 'virt-manager' component in http://bugzilla.redhat.com where any
issues can be reported.

Regards,
Dan.
