Hello all,
I have been facing an issue when building libvirt using the following steps:
1) ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/ --enable-compile-warnings=error
2) make
3) make install
The issue is that the above steps puts the binary in /usr/lib instead of /usr/lib64 on a
64 bit OS (RHEL).
[root@c6100l lib]# cat /etc/issue

[root@c6100l lib]# uname -r

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7521681 Jan 10 13:59 libvirt.so.0.9.4
This leads to a whole list of other problems.
Please may I ask for your help to resolve this issue?
Many Thanks,
