Util-vserver packages are currently regularly updated in Squeeze and Wheezy.

There are two flavours of package for the development version of util-vserver 0.30.216-pre2864:
+
 
+
the util-vserver-basic-debian uses:
+
 
+
        ./configure $(CROSS)    --prefix=/usr \
+
                                --sysconfdir=/etc \
+
                                --localstatedir=/var \
+
                                --mandir=/usr/share/man \
+
                                --infodir=/usr/share/info \
+
                                --with-initrddir=/etc/vservers/init.d \
+
                                --with-vrootdir=/var/lib/vservers \
+
                                --enable-dietlibc
+
 
+
 
+
the util-vserver-basic uses:
+
 
+
 
+
        ./configure $(CROSS)    --prefix=/usr/local \
+
                                --with-initrddir=/usr/local/etc/vservers/init.d \
+
                                --enable-dietlibc \
+
                                --with-vrootdir=/vservers
+
 
+
 
+
Choose the '-basic' if you upgrade from source, choose the '-debian' if you upgrade from debian packages.
+
As allways those packages comes with no warrant other than that we made them for us and provide tehm to the community in hope they help so they work for us on production server so they should be quite safe. Report issue with them on the vserver list if you find any so we can correct them.
+
 
+
I use them on several servers without issues on Debian Lenny.
+
 
+
 
+
hope that help the community, thanks to Ben Green for providing the mirror, helping out and making the kernel packages for us all.
