This is not to work around the test suite. The intent is to help people migrating from < 0.8.3 to 0.8.3. When considering the following binary states: file exists, disk format is specified, ignoreOpenFailure and allowProbing, what is in trunk (ie ignoreOpenFailure=true) and this patch work the same in all cases except when the file does not exist and the format is not specified and allowProbing=false (the new default). With what is in trunk, this is an error condition, with my patch, the domain will start but the disk is not added to the profile. Throwing an error because the format isn't correct on a disk that doesn't exist seemed an odd side-effect when migrating. I can see arguments against this, and would like to commit the changes to tests/virt-aa-helper-test regardless. -- Jamie Strandboge | http://www.canonical.com
