Fedora xen - Sep 2006 - "Import Error:No module named libvirt" while running xenguest-install.py in Fc5 x86 mode

I download xen3.0.2-23.src.rpm and build the dom0 Kernel in Fedora COre 5 in x86
mode. I did not build a domU kernel at all.
  I tried to run ./xenguest-install.py in dom0 kernel after booting into it.. I
got this error
  "No module named libvirt".
   
  I then tried installing libvirt-0.0.6-1.i386.rpm using
  "rpm --install libvirt-0.0.6-1.i386.rpm"
   
  I get failed dependencies error such as
  "libxenstore.so is needed by libvirt-0.0.6-1.i386
  xen is needed by libvirt-0.0.6-1.i386"
   
  what am I missing here ? I have libxenstore.so in /usr/lib. 
  Commands like "xm list" works in dom0 kernel
   
  thanks for your help
  Shobha

  There is a set of tightly interconnected packages that are needed. You cannot
just upgrade one of them, especially the xen RPM. The set of source RPMs
are kernel (-xen), xen, libvirt, python-xeninst (and virt-manager) .
Don''t try
to upgrade one without upgrading the others. The RPM dependancies are here to
express the tight coupling between those packages, don''t try to --force
or
--nodeps you''re nearly garanteed to have a not running Xen setup if you
do.
The best is to upgrade to FC6 test3 if you want to try a recent version, and
to FC6 final when it''s out.
