libvirt users - Sep 2013 - virt-manager could not start with error "version `LIBVIRT_PRIVATE_0.10.2' not found "

Hello all,
   i am now running xen 4.2.3 on centos 6.4. As we know, the default
libvirt package could not work well with xen on centos6.x. So, i compile
the libvirt  by my self, and i have compiled libvirt-1.1.1, libvirt-1.1.2,
libvirt-1.1.3. After the installation of libvirt, i run virt-manager, but
it print error as below.

*ImportError: /usr/local/lib/libvirt.so.0: version `LIBVIRT_PRIVATE_0.10.2'
not found (required by /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so)*

I found one topic talk about the erorr, but get nothing

https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=41893&forum=56

anyone meet the same error as me?  any response is appreciated!

Generally, this means that you have not uninstalled the distro build,
and that your self-build was built with different paths as configure
arguments; as a result, you are mixing and matching between the two
binaries.  Best is to retry your self-build to use the exact same paths
as the distro (for example, if building from git, './autogen.sh
--system' does that), and/or to uninstall the distro build so that you
aren't mixing paths with your self-built executable getting confused by
finding .so or other binaries from the older distro build.
