Policy for Fedora releases is that once the release is made, only bug
fixes to that version will be used; Fedora 15 won't ever ship newer than
0.8.7. That said, you can use the fedora-virt-preview repo to get
Fedora 16's libvirt coupled with the rest of Fedora 16. Other
possibilities are to update to Fedora 16 and/or help beta test Fedora
17, or to build libvirt from a tarball yourself rather than waiting for
Fedora to do it for you.
Good luck.

Thanks Eric for your reply.
Using fedora-virt-preview , i can only get till libvirt-0.9.6
But i am interested in libvirt-0.9.10 version, bcoz libvirt-0.9.10 contains
the functions that i require in my project.
And regarding tarball the problem is that i need the following dependencies:
libvirt-client,libvirt-devel libvirt-debuginfo ,pyhton-libvirt
And these are not shipped for i386 and i686 machine for the same verion
0.9.10.

Just out of curiosity, what new-to-0.9.10 feature do you require?
And regarding tarball the problem is that i need the following
dependencies:
libvirt-client,libvirt-devel libvirt-debuginfo ,pyhton-libvirt
And these are not shipped for i386 and i686 machine for the same
verion 0.9.10.
Those are built from the same sources, and as a part of the process of
building the libvirt package. Once you have the libvirt sources
untarred, you should be able to do something like:
./autogen.sh --system --with-qemu-user=qemu --with-qemu-group=qemu
make rpm
After you overcome errors related to packages that you need for the
build, this will create all the rpm files for you. You must then update
all of these packages at once:
rpm -Uvh libvirt-*.i686.rpm
If you need to rebuild and update again, you'll need to add:
--oldpackage --replacefiles --replacepkgs
to the rpm commandline.
If you have problems with the build process, you should probably ask
questions on libvir-list (the development list) rather than here, so the
responses will be usefully archived.
