Libguestfs - Sep 2012 - Libguestfs on Debian Squeeze

Hi,

I have following system:
      --> Debian Squeeze with self compiled qemu-kvm 1.1.2, libvirt 
0.10.1 and Kernel 3.2.0 .

Now, I want to install libguestfs, without modifying the qemu-kvm nor 
the libvirt version! I know that there is a mirror available on

  http://people.debian.org/~bengen/libguestfs 
<http://people.debian.org/%7Ebengen/libguestfs>

, but this would not work without modifying the qemu- version and some 
other packages!

Anyone an idea how the Installation for libguestfs on Debian should be done?


Cheers,
Mike

I would suggest building from source and running the programs
from the local directory (using the ./run script).  Read the README
file in the source first.
