When getfattr dumps values of all extended attributes (-d option), it doesn't print empty extended attributes. e.g: user.name. But from attr-2.4.48 this behavior is changed, new getfattr prints user.name="". The {=""} will break the golden image, so filter the redundant ="" at the end if it has. Signed-off-by: Zorro Lang <zlang@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Hi, This's a bad news. Latest attr package attr-2.4.48 changed his behavior as above. And this's different with attr-2.4.47. With old attr: # setfattr -h -n user.name testfile # getfattr -d -n user.name testfile # file: testfile user.name With new attr: # setfattr -h -n user.name testfile # getfattr -d -n user.name testfile # file: testfile user.name="" Note: -d option is necessary This little difference will break golden image. So this's the problem. If you have better idea than this patch, please tell me.
