Sorry for the noob question but how do I configure and build qemu-kvm and

specific flag I need to use or do I need to install them from a specific
directory? It looks like the files and being put all over the place. Some
are in /etc and some are in /usr/local/etc. If I can get everything to
install in the correct spots I should be good I would hope.
What arguments are you passing to ./configure? If you build from
libvirt.git and are on a Fedora-based system, then using ./autogen.sh
--system will set up the preferred arguments to configure (these include
--prefix=/usr --libdir=$prefix/$lib --sysconfdir=/etc
--localstatedir=/var, where $lib is either lib or lib64).
I'm not quite sure what default directories a debian-based install
prefers; patches are welcome to ./autogen.sh to account for any
differences to match debian-preferred layout.
