FWN[2] when asking if
Richard Jones
would consider including qemu
-0.10 into libguestfs
package to satisfy dependencies for Fedora 10.
Richard "had a go at backporting the changes to qemu
that we ship in
F-10. qemu
in F-10 is based on qemu
0.9, and doesn't include the
vmchannel patch." But "ended up with a qemu which compiled, but kept
segfaulting, and it was tricky to diagnose exactly why."
"Is it really a problem to use the libguestfs
[3] and/or qemu
[4] packages from
Fedora 11 builds? You can grab the latest builds out of Koji."
"This worked OK for me, although I have now moved to using Fedora
11-Preview, and have mostly abandoned Fedora 10."
Daniel B and Mark Mc concurred, Fedora 11 is the place to get
libguestfs
.
