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? -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
