Can you please move the struct declaration outside of the function? [...] > + fprintf(stderr, " %s:\n", _("TLS")); > + fprintf(stderr, " %s: %s\n", > + _("CA certificate"), > + privileged ?

LIBVIRT_SERVERKEY : "$HOME/.pki/libvirt/serverkey.pem"); > + fprintf(stderr, "\n"); I think the above would work better if you used " %-18s %s\n" as the format string, which would result in TLS: CA certificate $HOME/.pki/libvirt/cacert.pem Server certificate $HOME/.pki/libvirt/servercert.pem Server private key $HOME/.pki/libvirt/serverkey.pem instead of TLS: CA certificate: $HOME/.pki/libvirt/cacert.pem Server certificate: $HOME/.pki/libvirt/servercert.pem Server private key: $HOME/.pki/libvirt/serverkey.pem as the output. Not a big deal either way, but since we're going out of our way to align options and their descriptions above it makes sense to me that we'd do the same here as well. After this patch, the code looks much less readable, but I understand why you want to do this and you also get rid of some duplication when it comes to the system/session daemons, so I'm overall okay with the change. -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
