Hi All,
The Libvirt compliation fails to bootstarp for local gnulib. We do not have outbound access for the test machines. So, we ll pull the gnulib from and copy to the test machines.
When we run ./bootstrap --no-git --gnulib-srcdir=/path/to/local, below is the error:
Have you tried using ./autogen.sh instead of ./bootstrap? While ./bootstrap is part of the process for building a git checkout, it is not the entire process, and we document that you should be using ./autogen.sh. I don't have much experience with using --no-git, but I'd like to fix the problem if I can reproduce it.
I _think_ I figured out the problem; gnulib's bootstrap wasn't honoring --no-git. Proposed patch here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-July/msg00232.html But again, I'm biased by the fact that I normally have network access, and didn't want to cripple that to test, so I didn't _actually_ reproduce the issue, and any testing you can do of the proposed patch would be appreciated. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
