libvirt users - Jun 2012 - What's the most recent compatible libvirt and qemu-kvm?

Figured I'd test qemu-kvm-1.0.1 and libvirt-0.9.12, but the result after
default compiles is:

root at black:/usr/local/sbin# ./libvirtd 
2012-06-12 19:53:41.894+0000: 6076: info : libvirt version: 0.9.12
2012-06-12 19:53:41.894+0000: 6076: warning : ebiptablesDriverInit:4084 : Could
not find 'ebtables' executable
2012-06-12 19:53:42.675+0000: 6076: error : qemuCapsComputeCmdFlags:1209 :
unsupported configuration: this qemu binary requires libvirt to be compiled with
yajl
2012-06-12 19:53:42.677+0000: 6076: error : virDomainDefParseXML:8312 : internal
error No guest options available for arch 'x86_64'

Is it just the "yajl" thing missing, or is this combo just not to be
expected to work?

Also, should http://libvirt.org/compiling.html mention "yajl"? 

Thanks,
Whit

Yes, you need to install the yajl-devel RPM and rebuild libvirt.

This is because latest QEMU binaries are quite alot of functionality
that is only available via the JSON protocol monitor & libvirt needs
this stuff.

It should mention quite a lot more !  Look at the libvirt.spec.in file
in libvirt GIT and see everything listed in a 'BuildRequires' line. You
will want most of it present when building libvirt.

Need to install yajl-devel rpm package.
