This group doesn't exist on any RHEL distro, and dnf itself only exists in RHEL >= 8. I htink we should be just listing the packages we need explicitly rather than relying on a group whose name & contents change over time.
I expect most people doing development work on libvirt are using Fedora rather than RHEL, and I really don't want this document to become too verbose or duplicate too much information that's already available elsewhere... If we can cover ~90% of potential users with just a few commands, I think that's preferable.
Just listing the extra packages is simpler than the group name. dnf install gcc make automake libtool autoconf rpm-build Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|
