Minor bug in 4.0.0-rc2

Minor bug in 4.0.0-rc2

[M A Young]

I have been trying to put 4.0.0-rc2 into an RPM, and I got the error 
"canonicalization unexpectedly shrank by one character" when it was 
creating files for the debuginfo package. This is because this bit of rpm 
doesn't like // in paths to file names, and the // comes from the makefile 
xen-4.0.0/tools/blktap2/drivers/Makefile which sets XEN_ROOT=../../../ and 
then uses it like $(XEN_ROOT)/tools/libaio/src . XEN_ROOT=../../../ be 
replaced by XEN_ROOT=../../.. to keep rpm happy please (eg. with the 
following patch)?

Please share the .src.rpm :)

I am still tidying up to get it to finish, though I think I am almost 
there, as I have reached the unpackaged files stage.

The list, if you are interested, is
     /etc/sysconfig/xend
    /usr/bin/remus
    /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm
    /usr/lib/xen/bin/stubdompath.sh
    /usr/lib64/libconfig.la
    /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/libconfig.pc
    /usr/sbin/flask-getenforce
    /usr/sbin/flask-setenforce
    /usr/sbin/gtracestat
    /usr/sbin/gtraceview
    /usr/sbin/lock-util
    /usr/sbin/tapdisk-client
    /usr/sbin/tapdisk-diff
    /usr/sbin/tapdisk-stream
    /usr/sbin/tapdisk2
    /usr/sbin/td-util
    /usr/sbin/vhd-update
    /usr/sbin/vhd-util
    /usr/sbin/xen-hvmctx
    /usr/sbin/xen-tmem-list-parse
    /usr/sbin/xenlockprof
    /usr/sbin/xenpaging
    /usr/sbin/xl
    /usr/share/create.dtd
    /usr/share/info/dir
    /usr/share/info/libconfig.info.gz

Some clearly need to be deleted and others included, but others like 
/usr/share/create.dtd are less obvious.

It is at
http://myoung.fedorapeople.org/dom0/src/xen-4.0.0-0.1.rc2.fc12.src.rpm

I haven't had a chance to do more than build it so I have no idea if it 
actually works. It is basically xen-3.4.2-1.fc12.src.rpm with the 
necessary changes to adapt to 4.0.0-rc2 plus an included copy of 
http://xenbits.xensource.com/git-http/qemu-xen-unstable.git 4.0.0-rc2 to 
stop it downloading that whole git repository each time it builds.

Thanks. Actually a trailing slash was appended in quite a few places, so I
will fix them all at the same time.

This rc4 src.rpm seems to work (=build) for me on Fedora 12 host.
Also it seems to boot OK using custom 2.6.31.6 xen/master dom0 kernel.
