I'm not sure who or why it was removed. I've currently have version 1.0.0 built. Do you have libtirpc installed? I have the following notes/instructions: Dependencies. Required: curl libgcrypt libxml2 libnl gnutls util-linux libxslt python Recommended: lvm2 polkit yajl libtirpc qemu-kvm Optional: avahi parted libpciaccess iproute2 CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/include/tirpc" ./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib/libvirt --disable-static make make install Regards, Wayne. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
