 Hi,
 
  
 
 I have opened some bugs about VDSM dependencies that cannot be satisfied in
 the ppc64,
 these include newer versions of QEMU, libvirt and libguestfs.
 
  
 
 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1063799

 The first issue is the lack of a libguestfs package for Fedora Core 19 and 20,
 this is being worked on. Another issue is that in order to support the 3.4
 cluster compatibility level,
 VDSM requires a newer version of libvirt than the one shipped with FC19, which
 cannot be found anywhere for ppc64.
 The final issue is a bug in QEMU 1.4.2 that prevents VMs created through
 libvirt from running, this was fixed in
 later versions but also there is not a package for FC19 that has this fix.
 
  
 
 So, what do you suggest? Should a virt-preview repo be created for ppc64? What
 about RHEL6?

virt-preview would be an option, if I had ppc64 hardware to do the builds :)

 Or maybe these packages should be fixed and published as updates for the
 current releases of FC and RHEL?

Our policy is not to rebase qemu or libvirt to a new version in stable fedora
releases, since the risk of regressions is just too high. And generally there
is a new fedora version every 6 months so telling people to wait for new
features isn't typically a stretch.

No idea about RHEL though.

 Guys,
 Because vdsm is depend on a patch in libvirt 0.10.0, But libvirt
 0.10.0 is not available for fc17. You can download the rpm
 here:http://libvirt.org/sources/
Other packages can be found with yum.
Sorry for the inconvenience I've brought.

 Yeah, this unfortunate consequece was not foreseen by your reviewer.
 Shame on him. On the mean while, I've built libvirt-0.10.1-2 for my F16
 (yes, I'm backward) and put it in http://danken.fedorapeople.org/f16/

 I've moved it around under
 http://danken.fedorapeople.org/my-virt-preview, and added f17, but then
 realised, that we should better request whomever responsible on
 fedora-virt-preview to update libvirt under
 http://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virt-preview/
 
 Would the owner be kind to do this?
 

Whoops, my script was dead for a bit. Latest libvirt should be available there
for now.
