libguestfs / hivex Goto Github PK

ocamlfind query hivex does not find hivex, causing libguestfs ./autogen.sh to fail.

Installation steps:
./bootstrap
./autogen.sh
make
sudo make install

No issues with any of the above commands that I can see, and I noticed that autogen returned "OCaml bindings ........ yes" so I would expect ocamlfind to be able to pick it up.

I would love to see if either the bindings themselves or a Type Stub is available for developers.

I am currently trying to make my codebase (https://github.com/cobbler/cobbler) pyright/mypy compatible and this is one of the few dependencies that

1. I cannot add to my requirements list
2. Cannot be verified in terms of type checking

Hello
After installing all dependencies when run ./configure PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 throws configure not found. It seems than ./autogen.sh is not generating configure script

In 1.3.8 in python 3.3, the hivex module gave bytes objects for REG_BINARY values.
In 1.3.9, it started giving str objects for REG_BINARY values, or anything using value_value() it seems. Binary data should be kept as binary data. This is definitely a regression.
This broke any code trying to interpret binary objects, as the struct library does not accept str objects as valid binary data.
It doesn't make a lot of sense why one wouldn't want bytes objects from REG_BINARY objects.

Here are two registry keys, if we use the lib to create both, the shorter one is missing when opening with windows regedit.exe:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\1\CurrentControlSet\Services\VSS\Diag\Lovelace(__?GLOBALROOT_Device_HarddiskVolume3)]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\1\CurrentControlSet\Services\VSS\Diag\Lovelace(C:_)]

if I use node_add_child write a chinese word , windows regedit will show error this node .

Hello friends

When I try to build

# git clone https://github.com/libguestfs/hivex.git
# cd hivex
# ./autogen.sh

...throws

./configure: line 40722: syntax error near unexpected token `external'
./configure: line 40722: `AM_GNU_GETTEXT(external)'

Trying on CentOS Stream release 8 with Development Tools group installed and:

# rpm -qa|grep gettext
