Recent versions of livemedia-creator use qemu directly instead of libvirt, and I think I saw a problem there also, but didn't get to fix it just yet. You can use virt-builder to install a centos vm, or use an el7-based mock environment. You can follow the jenkins job here [1], basically you need to do is:
1. clone ovirt-node-ng (you already did) 2. clone jenkins 3. cd ovirt-node-ng 4. ../jenkins/mock_configs/mock_runner.sh --build-only --mock-confs-dir ../jenkins/mock_configs/ --shell 'el7.*x86_64' This will create a chroot environment in the same way we do in our CI, in that chroot shell, do `cd ~` and then autogen, and make squashfs....
