[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#609517: xen-utils-3.2-1: Pygrub can't find grub.conf in a reiserfs partion on amd64 arch

[Lepton Wu]

Package: xen-utils-3.2-1
Version: 3.2.1-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,
   
  There is a bug xen-3-3.2.1/tools/libfsimage/reiserfs/fsys_reiserfs.c, 
  it is using "unsigned long" which is 64 bits on amd64 arch and  32
  bits on i386 arch. 
  This makes pygrub can't work on reiserfs on amd64 arch. You can easily
  reproduce it.
  A patch is included for fixing this problem.
