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-
openvz --without-libvirtd --without-uml
- Apply patches
src/pci.c
#ifndef MODPROBE
#define MODPROBE 0
#endif
src/virsh.c:5665
if (command_ret != 0 /* WEXITSTATUS (0) */) {
- Compile
The MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET variable is very important, otherwise you
will get symbol errors when linking.

developers, easily customized by more sophisticated developers, and
readily extensible by experts." -- L. Stein
