Re: [libvirt] Question, new libvirt driver - OpenNebula.

We have updated the libvirt implementation
for OpenNebula to libvirt- 0.5.1 release, made use of the internal XML
handling API and the existing infrastructure for error, data
structures, etc...
Now we are facing the problem of needing
several libraries to compile the driver, the OpenNebula API
(liboneapi) and the xmlrpc library that the API makes use of.
The problem is that the xmlrpc library itself depends on:
libxmlrpc_client++ libxmlrpc_client libxmlrpc++ libxmlrpc
libxmlrpc_util libxmlrpc_xmlparse libxmlrpc_xmltok
We would like to link just against less libraries to make
the driver compilation clear and simple, any idea?
Well if those are the deps of liboneapi library there's no much we can
do about that - just have to link to them. Just make sure they are all
LGPL (or GPLv2+) compatible. We now have ability to build drivers as
dlopen'd modules, so it would neccessarily impact the set of linker
deps of the main libvirt.so library.
