Hi, I want install libvirt on my ubuntu11.04, and I want to test using libvirt to manage a xenserver, after download the tar and extract them when in this step : ./configure --with-esx --with-xenapi --prefix=/opt/libvirt .... checking for xen_vm_start in -lxenserver... no configure: error: You must install the XenServer Library to compile XenAPI driver with -lxenserver ..... I get this error, but i get very few information about it from google.

...

libvirt can use XenAPI via libxenserver [1]. That should allow you to use libvirt with a Citrix XenServer. You can use virsh like this assuming you have a libxenserver enabled libvirt:

virsh -c xenapi://my-xen-server

But it's true, there is no documentation about this on the libvirt website yet.

I download the libxenserver source and binary file from the above url, but I don't know how to install it and how to use -lxenserver, can anyone help me? thanks!
