The same issue blocks me when I try to compile the source code. So I tried to add fedora repository into the system: download

This patch series changes a small part of the library to use __attribute__((cleanup(...))) to automatically free memory when pointers go out of the current scope. In general terms this seems to be a small win although you do have to use it carefully. For functions where you can completely get rid of the "exit code paths", it can simplify things. For a good example, see the

Two (not related to each other) refactorings: Patches 1-12 split configure.ac into smaller files using the m4_include mechanism. Patches 13-15 split out parts of guestfs.pod (ie. guestfs(3)) into three new manual pages: guestfs-hacking(3) - how to extend and contribute to libguestfs guestfs-internals(3) - architecture and internals guestfs-security(3) - security and CVEs Patch 16 is a
