rpmbuild of mingw-libvirt.spec failed with:

I traced this to unconditionally trying to use the ACL .syms files,
even when polkit isn't in use.
build: avoid build failure without polkit
* src/Makefile.am (USED_SYM_FILES): Mark access driver symbols
according to use.

Even though this fixes a build-breaker (./autobuild.sh), I'm
reluctant to push this without review. In particular, I'm worried
that I may need a v2 that further conditionalizes whether
libvirt_access_qemu.syms is sometimes omitted based on rpm arguments,
even if libvirt_access.syms is present.

Hmm, really ? The methods in these .syms files are actually
methods that are inserted into all the driver method impls
unconditionally. So we shouldn't make this conditional on
polkit, rather we should fix the bug that causes them to
be unused when polkit is missing.

I'll keep investigating, then. My next step will be to see if I can
reproduce it on a --without-libvirtd local build, instead of being stuck
with debugging mingw cross-compiling.

Oh, is it a race condition in generating the .def file. The
libvirt_access*.sym files are all auto-generated files. The
.def file is also auto-generated, and there is no dep from
the .def file onto the libvirt_acces*sym files to control
execution order.

The problem is not the def file, but the libvirt.syms file. But the
Makefile dependency is:
libvirt.syms: libvirt_public.syms $(USED_SYM_FILES) \
$(top_builddir)/config.status
which includes libvirt_access.syms, yet a verbose make shows that the
failure is:
...
printf 'global:\n\n' >>libvirt.syms-tmp && \
cat ../../src/libvirt_private.syms libvirt_access.syms
libvirt_access_qemu.syms libvirt_access_lxc.syms
../../src/libvirt_esx.syms ../../src/libvirt_vmx.syms
../../src/libvirt_libssh2.syms >>libvirt.syms-tmp && \
printf '\n\nlocal:\n*;\n\n};' >>libvirt.syms-tmp && \
chmod a-w libvirt.syms-tmp && \
mv libvirt.syms-tmp libvirt.syms
cat: libvirt_access.syms: No such file or directory
cat: libvirt_access_qemu.syms: No such file or directory
cat: libvirt_access_lxc.syms: No such file or directory
so it may be a VPATH problem. In fact, looking at that line, look at
how libvirt_access.syms is listed locally, while
../../src/libvirt_esx.syms is listed in another directory. I'm still
playing with it...

Aha - light bulb moment. We have EXTRA_DIST += $(USED_SYM_FILES), which
means tarballs are including something that should be generated. We
have _other_ generated sym files that are intentionally not part of the
tarball; looks like I need to do the same here. Now testing my theory.
