* fix traceback due to kpartx failure (LP: #342359)
  - VMBuilder/disk.py: sleep a few seconds to give the loopback devices
    a chance to settle down, then try to unmount. If it fails, try a few
    more times and if still fails, error out as before
* fix FTBFS due to python2.6 transition (LP: #354849)
  - debian/python-vm-builder-ec2.install: use python2.6/dist-packages path
  - debian/python-vm-builder.install: use python2.6/dist-packages path

[ Nicolas Barcet ]
* Integrate ec2 postinstall script
* Add --install-mirror to fix LP: #291639
* Implement --iso to fix LP: #291590
* Install openssh-server cleanly LP: #293039
* Xen kernel and ramdisk are now dynamically discovered rather than
  hard coded
* Add --xen-kernel and --xen-ramdisk to override automatic discovery

* The libvirt plugin now errors out if used with something else than KVM, as
  nothing else is supported yet.
* For FSIMAGE type file system, --part now accepts a third argument which
  allows to specify the device the partition should be mapped to. If the
  size is set to 0, it is considered a "dummy" partition that should not be
  created, only added to fstab.
