I don't know if anyone on these lists is directly involved with those repos - Cole Hello list, I emailed the libvirt-users list to see if there would be a way to get more recent libvirt builds into my CentOS 7 + VIRT SIG/Xen packages. Here's what Cole Robinson from RedHat replied on that matter. Also the initial email. I'd appreciate your feedback on this. The more recent libvirt builds appear to include quite some improvements especially for the libxl parts. Best regards, Le

Le, It's not clear to me what you want. Are you asking the Virt SIG to update to a newer version of libvirt? -George On Sun, May 15, 2016 at 7:42 PM, Le Nucksi <lenucksi at lenucksi.eu> wrote:> On 05/14/2016 07:16 AM, Le Nucksi wrote: >> Hello list, >> >> is there a way to get more recent libvirt builds for CentOS 7 that include >> support for the xl (modern Xen) toolstack? >> >> I tried to build libvirt from the SRPM, which succeeded, however, without >> the mentioned Xen parts. >> I have also found two repos from people who provide upstream libvirt builds >> for CentOS 7, again, without the Xen parts. >> - https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jmliger/virt7-upstream/ and >> - https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:aevseev/libvirt >> >> Within the CentOS virtualization SIG builds for Xen there is a 1.3.x build >> of libvirt that includes support for the modern Xen toolstack. >> Would it be possible to inline this into the upstream to enable building it >> with Xen features on CentOS 7 such that the aforementioned people's RPMs >> would contain it? >> >> I appreciate any enlightment on the topic. > > I think you should either contact the owners of those libvirt repos, or > contact the centos virt sig.

I personnaly don't use xen but I planned to include xen support for the next libvirt release and I had already rebuilt the last xen packages from Virt SIG for this purpose. I have just rebuilt the current libvirt with xen and libxsl enabled.

I've just installed them and up to now they appear to work flawlessly. I'ld come back to you if I find something unflawless if that is ok for you.> > Best regards, > Jean-Marc LigerBest regards, Le
