-xen-bugtool
-===========
-
-The xen-bugtool command line application will collate the Xen dmesg output,
-details of the hardware configuration of your machine, information about the
-build of Xen that you are using, plus, if you allow it, various logs.
-
-The information collated can either be posted to a Xen Bugzilla bug (this bug
-must already exist in the system, and you must be a registered user there), or
-it can be saved as a .tar.bz2 for sending or archiving.
-
-The collated logs may contain private information, and if you are at all
-worried about that, you should not use this tool, or you should explicitly
-exclude those logs from the archive.
-
-xen-bugtool is wholly interactive, so simply run it, and answer the questions.
