[libvirt] Latest kvm packages for CentOS 5.3

Hi all, I've been working quite extensively with kvm on CentOS 5.3 lately. If you are interested in the latest rpm of kvm-kmod-2.6.30-rc8, qemu-kvm-0.10.5 and libvirt-0.6.4 you can temporary find them here: http://update.nethesis.it/kvm/ I've had no problem so far using these packages. Feedback is welcome. -- Federico.

RHEL5.4 is expected to have KVM support, so it would be nice to know in advance which version is being included with RHEL 5.4. Then we can update our own CentOS kvm kmod for testing and reporting upstream the issue(s) we still find. Today the kvm module is still missing from the upstream 2.6.18-152.el5 kernel, just as fuse which is also expected to appear. -- -- dag wieers, dag@centos.org, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors]

That version info will become available when RHEL-5.4 beta ships in the not too distant future...

Afraid we don't pre-announce release dates of RHEL. It'll ship when its ready ;-P Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :|
