I installed libvirt 0.9.10 from source and now virsh is not finding the
following:
testa@testaT4:~$ virsh list
virsh: /usr/lib/libvirt-qemu.so.0: version `LIBVIRT_QEMU_0.9.4' not found
(required by virsh)
Ouch - you've now got version mismatch, where you didn't completely
uninstall the distro version, and your self-built version is installed
in locations that pick up the distro version. Did you use the right
configure flags?
I can't install qemu 1.0 and libvirt 0.9.10 through apt right?
Ah, apt - are you on debian or ubuntu? I don't know as much about the
versions that those distros are using (I'm personally using Fedora 16,
along with the fedora-virt-preview repo, which gives 0.9.10 pre-built).
I assume I
had to get them from source. Anyways, please let me know how I can get
virsh to see that I have 0.9.10. Once I get this working and can run that
monitor command I will be in good shape.
There might be someone already shipping a pre-built 0.9.10 apt, but I
wouldn't know where to tell you to look, so building from source is the
other alternative. If you build from libvirt.git, you can use
'./autobuild.sh --system' to help set the ./configure options that match
with the typical installation directories for at least Fedora, but
again, I don't know how that fares with the debian installation layout
(and patches are welcome to autobuild.sh for anyone that wants to use it
on a debian layout).
