If an element like displayname or oem-boot-title contains
characters outside of the ascii table this causes trouble
when kiwi writes out the profile file and the code is called
through python2. The reason here is that the default encoding
on write() (and other methods) is set to ascii in python2
and when it receives unicode characters outside of the
ascii spec a UnicodeEncodeError is thrown. Now all of kiwi
is using Unicode which means this does not produce a problem
when calling the code through python3 because the default
encoding is utf-8 there. This patch introduces a method
which allows to change python's default encoding and calls
it at the code point where we write the profile because we
got unicode and we want to write unicode in any case.
This fixes at least one situation for python2-kiwi to
allow the use of non ascii characters in the XML setup.
If other places will be found the same approach should allow
to fix it for python2
Updates all XML descriptions to latest schema version and
also includes adaptions to the test XML descriptions for
testing the new Xen guest and server setup
Some attributes needed to be changed in the test xmls. With this
commit all the description files are consistent with the new co-
occurrence constraints.
Now each user item may or may not have a groups attribute. The
groups attribute is a comma separated list of group names. If
present the first group name will be the login or primary group,
if not present, the underlying toolchain will assign the default
login group for that user.
At the moment there is no class to build the pxe client config
file from information provided with the optional pxedeploy
section. However this is not fatal to the build because the file
could be created manually too. Thus a warning message is shown
which will go away when the pxe client config file creation
has been ported
