Re: Building libvirt library without libvirtd or virsh

Hello there,
I'm trying to play with musl and libvirt to see if I'm able to build a
libvirt client binary without dynamic lib dependencies. I have two
questions:
1) to your knowledge, is this exercise futile?
2) Do you know if there is a way to *only* compile the library bits?
I want to reduce the number of dependencies in the build, and only
construct the libvirt libraries, not libvirtd nor virsh.
You can disable building the daemon with -Ddriver_libvirtd=disabled (if I am
reading the code correctly). I do not think there is something similar for the
clients, but I might be wrong. Pavel (Cc'd) would definitely know or at least
be able to find it out more easily. If it is not possible now then it should
not be that difficult to add such option, I think.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Roman.-
