Hello, When I want to install libvirt-0.10.0 from source, I get this error at the configure stage checking for libdevmapper.h... no configure: error: You must install device-mapper-devel/libdevmapper >= 1.0.0 to compile libvirt However the package is installed on my system # yum list device-mapper-libs.x86_64 Installed Packages device-mapper-libs.x86_64 1.02.74-10.el6 @base/$releasever What is the problem then? Regards, Mahmood

You need device-mapper-devel. Personally, I find it easiest to do 'yum builddep libvirt' to figure out what packages to install before compiling libvirt on a Fedora system. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
OK I mistakenly ignored the devel package. Anyway...
