Libguestfs - Sep 2023 - [EXTERNAL] - Re: Libguestfs desired version installation

Hi Richard,

Yes, you are correct my ask is without upgrading OS version(from 8.2 to 9.0) is
it possible to upgrade libguestfs alone to different versions.
Thanks
Teja

I read the first email, you don't need to keep sending it.

If you upgrade RHEL from 8.2 to the latest (8.8 or 8.9) you will get libguestfs
1.44.0.

If you upgrade to RHEL 9 you will get libguestfs 1.50.1.

Since you have (still) not described the exact environment you're using, or
even accurately described the problem you're having, I don't know if
this will make any difference.

Rich.

No, that is not supported.
