Getting libvirt-0.6.3 (client) to compile on OS X
- Use MacPorts to install gnutls (and its several dependencies)
- Set environment variables:
export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/local/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include"
export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.4
- Configure
--prefix=/opt/libvirt/ --without-sasl --without-avahi --without-polkit
--without-python --without-xen --without-qemu --without-lxc --without-

- Apply patches
src/pci.c
#ifndef MODPROBE
#define MODPROBE 0

That's great - we can easily fix these 2 bugs.
- Compile
The MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET variable is very important, otherwise you
will get symbol errors when linking.
We currently have a patch on the website describing how to build for
Windows
http://libvirt.org/windows.html
I think it'd be great to get an equivalent page for OS-X, if you'd
like to document your process formally. Just create a new .html.in
file in the docs/ directory, and add it to docs/sitemap.html.in too.
