[libvirt] building libvirtd fails on libxml-2

I'm running on Centos5.3 Building using: ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr configure fails with checking libxml2 xml2-config >= 2.6.0 ... configure: error: Could not find libxml2 anywhere (see config.log for details). but rpm -qa | grep libxml2 libxml2-python-2.6.26-2.1.2.7 libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2.7 libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2.7 So what's the problem, or better yet, how to fix it? Thanks, Dan

I suppose you lack the -devel package? Paolo

Yes looks like it :-) Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ daniel@veillard.com | Rpmfind RPM search engine http://rpmfind.net/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

Right. Now after it compiled and installed, I get: ImportError: No module named libvirtmod That after I manually entered the python dir and installed libvirt.py since the Makefile has all of the python generation and installation commented out. What I cannot figure out is what generates libvirtmod Dan On Wed, Sep 23, 2009 at 5:40 PM, Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>wrote:

Looks like make install in the python dir does nothing: [root@earth python]# pwd /root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python [root@earth python]# make Making all in . make[1]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all-am'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python' Making all in tests make[1]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python/tests' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python/tests' [root@earth python]# make install Making install in . make[1]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python' make[2]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. test -z "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages" || /bin/mkdir -p "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages" make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python' make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python' Making install in tests make[1]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python/tests' make[2]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python/tests' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. /bin/sh ../../build-aux/mkinstalldirs /usr/local/share/doc/libvirt-python-0.7.1/examples (for test in basic.py create.py uuid.py error.py node.py; \ do /usr/bin/install -c -m 0644 ./$test /usr/local/share/doc/libvirt-python-0.7.1/examples ; done) make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python/tests' make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/libvirt-0.7.1/python/tests' Dan On Wed, Sep 23, 2009 at 5:41 PM, Dan Bar Dov <bardov@gmail.com> wrote:
