Kevin, what's the correct behavior for qemu-img and relative paths when
creating a new qcow2 file?
Example:
(in e.g. /home/qemu/build/ or anywhere not /home: )
qemu-img create -f qcow2 base.qcow2 32G
qemu-img create -f qcow2 -F qcow2 -b base.qcow2 /home/overlay.qcow2
In 1.7.0., this produces a warning that the base object cannot be found
(because it does not exist at that location relative to overlay.qcow2),
but qemu-img will create the qcow2 for you regardless.
2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 all will create the image successfully, with no warnings.
2.3-rc1/master as they exist now will emit an error message and create
no image.
Since this is a change in behavior for the pending release, is this the
correct/desired behavior?
