Hi, In order to get libguestfs (having package guestfsd) built a lot of dependent packages has to be built first: Unmet build dependencies: febootstrap (>= 3.2) libvirt-dev qemu-kvm (>= 0.13) libsys-virt-perl libfuse-dev fuse-utils
libsys-virt-perl depends on libvirt-dev while fuse and febootstrap needs support/workarounds for mount.h libvirt build-depends among other packages on dnsmasq-base and libcap0.8. As a test I managed to enable libvirt to build by cheating a little when building dnsmasq-base, installing it and then doing some tweaks to get libvirt built. Parts of the needed changes are related to bpf support. So when bpf is available, a _very_ lot of useful packages will build (and with libpcap0.8 we will have tcpdump/net-acct). Other missing definitions for dnsmasq are: sockaddr_dl, LLADDR: sys/if_dl.h and IP_RECVIF: sys/netinet/in.h if BSD network or IP_PKTINFO: bits/in.h if Linux network. If the patches from Zheng Da and R Braun are applied, how much work is still needed to get bps as an integrated part of gnumach/hurd/libc? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
