Hi All,
I've been trying to upgrade our version of libvirt-java to 0.4.8
since we're now running libvirt 0.10.0 and are running into the following
dependency problems on our Centos 6.2 machine.
libvirt-java requires libvirt-client > 0.9.12
1. The libvirt-client RPMs all appear to be targeted to Fedora Core system
and I'm not certain I should be trying to install these RPMs on my CentOS
box. However, I'm unable to find a source tarball so I can build
libvirt-client from source.
Libvirt-client is a subpackage; if you take the official tarball and run
'make rpm', that will give the libvirt.srpm which then generates
libvirt-client.rpm among others.
2. I did try to install the FC RPM
libvirt-client-0.10.0-0rc0.fc16.x86_64.rpm and this fails with the error
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.14)(64bit) is needed by
libvirt-client-0.10.0-0rc0.fc16.x86_64
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.15)(64bit) is needed by
libvirt-client-0.10.0-0rc0.fc16.x86_64
Reusing a Fedora rpm on CentOS might work, but you will lose out on some
of the RHEL-specific patches, so all bets are off. But you already know
that, since CentOS is already an at-your-own-risk when compared to RHEL.
3. Not sure why libvirt-java depends on libvirt-client
Because libvirt-java uses libvirt.so, and libvirt-client provides
libvirt.so.
