Did you mean autogen.sh?

The steps I used to get a successful build are: cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@libvirt.org:2401/data/cvs login cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@libvirt.org:2401/data/cvs co libvirt cd libvirt/ ./autogen.sh make

Can you try those in a temp directory to see if they work for you? > gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I../gnulib/lib -I../gnulib/lib - I../include -I../include -I../src -I/usr/include/libxml2 -Wall - Wformat -Wformat-security -Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs - Wpointer-arith -Wextra -Wshadow -Wcast-align -Wwrite-strings - Waggregate-return -Wstrict-prototypes -Winline -Wredundant-decls -Wno- sign-compare -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fasynchronous- unwind-tables -DLOCAL_STATE_DIR="\"/usr/local/var\"" - DSYSCONF_DIR="\"/usr/local/etc\"" -DQEMUD_PID_FILE="\"\"" - DREMOTE_PID_FILE="\"/usr/local/var/run/libvirtd.pid\"" - DGETTEXT_PACKAGE=\"libvirt\" -g -O2 -MT libvirtd-remote_protocol.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/libvirtd-remote_protocol.Tpo -c -o libvirtd- remote_protocol.o `test -f 'remote_protocol.c' || echo './'`remote_protocol.c > mv -f .deps/libvirtd-remote_protocol.Tpo .deps/libvirtd- remote_protocol.Po > /bin/sh ../mylibtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc -I../gnulib/lib - I../gnulib/lib -I../include -I../include -I../src - I/usr/include/libxml2 -Wall -Wformat -Wformat-security -Wmissing- prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wpointer-arith -Wextra -Wshadow -Wcast- align -Wwrite-strings -Waggregate-return -Wstrict-prototypes -Winline - Wredundant-decls -Wno-sign-compare -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -DLOCAL_STATE_DIR="\"/usr/local/var\"" - DSYSCONF_DIR="\"/usr/local/etc\"" -DQEMUD_PID_FILE="\"\"" - DREMOTE_PID_FILE="\"/usr/local/var/run/libvirtd.pid\"" - DGETTEXT_PACKAGE=\"libvirt\" -g -O2 -Wall -Wformat -Wformat-security - Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wpointer-arith -Wextra -Wshadow - Wcast-align -Wwrite-strings -Waggregate-return -Wstrict-prototypes - Winline -Wredundant-decls -Wno-sign-compare -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 - fexceptions -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -o libvirtd libvirtd- event.o libvirtd-qemud.o libvirtd-remote.o libvirtd-remote_pr ot > ocol.o -lxml2 -lgnutls -lpthread -lsasl2 ../src/libvirt_driver_qemu.la ../src/libvirt_driver_lxc.la ../src/libvirt_driver_uml.la ../src/libvirt_driver_storage.la ../src/libvirt_driver_network.la ../src/libvirt.la ../gnulib/lib/libgnu.la -lpthread > (LD) -o libvirtd libvirtd-event.o libvirtd-qemud.o libvirtd-remote.o libvirtd-remote_protocol.o > ../src/.libs/libvirt_driver_storage.a(storage_backend.o): In function `virStorageBackendWaitForDevices': > /home/af/vepa/libvirt/libvirt/src/storage_backend.c:262: undefined reference to `virNodeDeviceWaitForDevices' > collect2: ld returned 1 exit status > make[3]: *** [libvirtd] Error 1 This function was touched recently by the NPIV commit, so it's possible that you have stale build files lying around. You could also try a make clean && make to see if that fixes the problem.
