Re: [libvirt-users] Building an RPM

Hi, I had tried that and found numerous packages that were needed as a pre-req, so I thought of trying the make rpm route. Anyway, I went back to rpmbuild -ta and installed all the pre-req packages, RHEL has them in their repo so it made it easier than I though. Except for "numad is needed by libvirt-0.9.11-1.el6.x86_64", and I can't find numad RHEL rpm, I am not sure where to get numad source code to compile?

I am not sure why api.html is missing, since this is a clean untar of the 0.9.11 tar file, and './configure;make;make install' all worked without any issues. Try rpmbuild -ta libvirt-0.9.11.tar.gz "make rpm" is more for people working out of a git checkout, ou may end up with missing dependancies leading to a failure to "make dist". rpmbuild may raise a number of missing dependencies that you may have to supply locally first before actually making a build.
