You should give /usr/lib64 as the path. As for why it doesn't work, though, I'm really very confused. Obviously I don't get the error you're seeing, and I don't understand how something as simple as '-lvirt' can fail if you have libvirt installed. Have you tried using our binaries? Might be easier than trying to build it: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=450713 Also, the new version I'm preparing is much less alpha than the one you are trying to build. If you can wait until after this weekend, you may find a much better / more practical version for your needs.
