Re: Compiling libvirt on ubuntu

Hi, I'm trying to compile libvirt on ubuntu machine. I installed meson 0.59.1 using pip. Then installed a few more packages that were required by meson build: sudo apt-get install libxml2-utils xsltproc libpciaccess-dev ninja-build Finally, I followed the simple instructions over here: https://libvirt.org/compiling.html xz -dc libvirt-7.7.0.tar.xz | tar xvf - cd libvirt-7.7.0 meson build ninja -C build The last command fails with: FAILED: src/libvirt-admin.so.0.7007.0 cc -o src/libvirt-admin.so.0.7007.0 src/libvirt_probes.o src/libvirt-admin.so.0.7007.0.p/meson-generated_.._admin_admin_protocol.c.o src/libvirt-admin.so.0.7007.0.p/admin_libvirt-admin.c.o src/libvirt-admin.so.0.7007.0.p/datatypes.c.o -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--no-undefined -shared -fPIC -Wl,--start-group -Wl,-soname,libvirt-admin.so.0 '-Wl,-rpath,$ORIGIN/:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' -Wl,-rpath-link,/home/oro/ozeri/libvirt-7.7.0/build/src src/libvirt.so.0.7007.0 -Wl,--version-script=/home/oro/ozeri/libvirt-7.7.0/build/src/admin/libvirt_admin.syms -Wl,-z,nodelete /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcap-ng.so /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/9/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libdevmapper.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnutls.so -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now -Wl,--no-copy-dt-needed-entries /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgobject-2.0.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgio-2.0.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libyajl.so -Wl,--end-group /usr/bin/ld: src/libvirt-admin.so.0.7007.0.p/admin_libvirt-admin.c.o: in function `callFull': /home/oro/ozeri/libvirt-7.7.0/build/../src/admin/admin_remote.c:99: undefined reference to `virNetClientProgramCall' /usr/bin/ld: src/libvirt-admin.so.0.7007.0.p/admin_libvirt-admin.c.o: in function `remoteAdminConnectClose': /home/oro/ozeri/libvirt-7.7.0/build/../src/admin/admin_remote.c:197: undefined reference to `virNetClientSetCloseCallback'
