 Hi,
 I have build libvirt in the following method:
 $ meson build -Dsystem=true
 $ ninja -C build
 When i tried to get the information via

 $pkg-config --cflags --libs libvirt

 it doesnt show anything.

 But I tried
 $ninja -C build install

 and then
 $pkg-config --cflags --libs libvirt
 It shows like:
 libvirt-7.1.0]# pkg-config --cflags --libs libvirt
 -lvirt  
This is expected: pkg-config can't find the libvirt.pc file until
you've installed it :)

...
 But the problem is when i tried to get the status of libvirt

 # systemctl status libvirtd
 ● libvirtd.service
    Loaded: not-found (Reason: Unit libvirtd.service not found.)
    Active: failed (Result: exit-code) 

 I tried with 
 # systemctl daemon-reload
 But the problem persists.. 
 what will be the problem... 
What does running

  $ ls /usr/lib/systemd/system/*virt*

output?

What does the

    Miscellaneous
            ...
            Init script: XXX

entry look like in the summary that's displayed when you run Meson?

What OS are you using?
