hi.
i am trying to build 0.8.6 but this fails due to the lack of macvtap
enabled in my kernel. i won't use it, so i don't care, but even if i
disable it, build won't work. apparently, thats a known bug, according
to
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2010-December/msg00034.html
Yes, and it's fixed in git.
so now i am trying to build a snapshot
but it also fails during "make rpm", specifically during make check in
"tests". commandtest.c fails and I cannot find out why. here's the log:
http://pastebin.com/rVPNDpS6
make rpm builds from a tarball generated by make dist.
/usr/src/packages/BUILD/libvirt-0.8.6/tests/commanddata/test16.log
is missing in the tarball because the whole commanddata directory is
not marked for distribution in tests/Makefile.am.
This is easy to fix, but right now I've no time to fix it myself, so
somebody else might post a patch to fix this before me :)
