Do you think just applying the patch to fix the install path to the Makefile will fix it or will I need the other 6 patches as well (which seem quite extensive)? I am just wondering if ther= e was another intended way (by the maintainers) to install the OCAML versio= n of xenstored side-by-side with the C- version and have the option to use either one.... Thanks Yuvraj -----Original Message----- From: xen-devel-bounces@lists.xensource.com [mailto:xen-devel-bounces@lists.xensource.com] On Behalf Of Alex Zeffertt Sent: Wednesday, May 26, 2010 3:28 AM To: Yuvraj Agarwal Cc: 'xen-devel' Subject: Re: FW: [Xen-devel] using OCAML xenstored Some time ago I sent some patches against xen-ocaml-tools.hg to make it work as replacement for the C xenstored in xen-unstable.hg. One of the patches was to fix this install path issue: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2009-04/msg00697.html I don't think these patches were applied. (I don't know if there is a reason for this.) It might be worth checking out the whole patch queue if you are intending to use it with xen-unstable.hg.
