But there's a huge difference between these two. While
virDomainModificationImpact flags are exposed in python, typed params
are not due to our special handling (associative arrays). In other
Not really. They were exposed in python and stopped to be once commit
f5d9c5d00cfc0c moved them away into a file that was not handled. I
explained it a few lines below [1].
words, if you have two enums, you can map one to another and our
sanity
check script would be happy about. Except typed params.
The script is happy as long as the first of the enums maps directly to
integers or the second referenced enum maps directly to integers.
Just the two passes.
I also think we can't just stop exposing the VIR_TYPED_PARAM_* constants
in python despite the fact that they are not really useful there.

I don't think it is fixed. Have you tried running:
./setup.py check
I presume you meant ./setup.py test, since that is the part that is
running sanitytest.py. And I sure did run it since I was fixing the
exact issue as this patch is supposed to fix:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-April/msg01464.html
Here's my output if you don't trust me:
# /home/pipo/libvirt.git/run ./setup.py check
running check
# /home/pipo/libvirt.git/run ./setup.py test
running test
/usr/bin/python sanitytest.py build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.7
/home/pipo/libvirt.git/docs/libvirt-api.xml
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/nosetests

OK
That is with current master branches of libvirt.git and
libvirt-python.git as of writing this email.
with the latest libvirt HEAD installed (which already contains the
commit you're referring to)?
Point is, build of python bindings is broken, so either we fix it or
revert whatever patch caused it.
That would be basically the whole recent admin API work.
