Hi,
Here is what I did when I tried to upgrade the libvirt on my centos5 system to the latest version.
sudo yum install python-devel xen-devel libxml2-devel readline-devel gnutls-devel wget ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/libvirt-0.3.2-1.src.rpm sudo rpmbuild --rebuild libvirt-0.3.2-1.src.rpm
It's best to avoid building RPMs as root. Set up a non-root RPM buildroot instead. If you have rpmdevtools package installed, then there should be a command "rpmdev-setuptree" which does this. Otherwise read these instructions: http://genetikayos.com/code/repos/rpm-tutorial/trunk/rpm-tutorial.html
Hum, I always rebuilt the libvirt RPM done for the release under my own user id without setting up a specific buildroot.

I think your best bet is to take a look at where it is installing these files. Find the RPM build root (usually /var/tmp/something) and do: find /var/tmp/something -type f
The compare that list of files with the one in the spec file.
Hum this all build fine here with paphio:~/libvirt -> rpm -q rpm rpm-build rpm-4.4.2-47.el5 rpm-build-4.4.2-47.el5 and also on the Fedora 7 and 8 build systems, very strange.
I tried to get around this by putting the following in the ~/.rpmmacros file (according to this webpage http://www.rpm.org/hintskinks/unpackaged/):
_unpackaged_files_terminate_build 0 _missing_doc_files_terminate_build 0
However, that does not seem to help. Any ideas?
Should I just install the binary packages instead of building from source?
I must admit that I normally build from CVS, and on RHEL 5 that works just fine, so I can't see why it would work from Centos.
For building from CVS, there is a 'make rpm' command which works fine at least in my environment.
