   An update that has four recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:


   This update provides KIWI v7.03.117, which brings several fixes and
   enhancements:

   - Do not include any suffix to the displayname value: If displayname
     attribute in the description file is used we should not include any kind
     of suffix to that value. With this patch the grub2 menu entry does not
     include the image type suffix if the displayname option is used.
     (bsc#1029904)

   - Fixed grub bootloader setup for ec2 firmware: In EC2, Xen is used but
     not detected as such by kiwi unless a domain configuration is provided
     in the image description. As this is a regression to the former
     behavior, this patch makes sure the bootloader setup is appropriate
     depending on the firmware set to ec2|ec2hvm. (bsc#1049178)

   - Fixed parameters passed to systemd calls, so that 'baseService
     nfs-server off` can be executed without issues. (bsc#1041815)

   - Fixed detection of Xen PV guest: The method isXen was used to check if
     the paravirtual kernel kernel-xen is used and if so it influences the
     setup of the bootloader. In newer versions there is no kernel-xen
     anymore and its capabilities were moved into the pvops kernel provided
     with the standard kernel-default package. Thus one kernel can now serve
     for pv, hvm and dom0 images. Because of that there is no other way than
     specifying the target Xen use case as part of the image description. The
     information can be provided in the doman setup of the machine
     configuration with:

     - domain="dom0"
     - domain="domU"
     - domain="domU-PV"

     The new domU-PV value allows to specify that this image is going to be
   used as a xen para virtual guest. The standard domU value will setup the
   bootloader in a way that it is usable as "real" bootloader in an hvmloader
   Xen guest. (bsc#1036198)
