I'm looking at (what I hope is the correct) configuration file for the build: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/libvirt.rb and see '--without-qemu' being passed - what is the reason for that ? It looks like you're building libvirtd, so enabling QEMU thereafter should not have any significantly difficulties. Certainly we expect the QEMU driver code to be platform agnostic - all the Linux specific bits are believed to be wrapped in conditionals. IOW if you see build errors with QEMU on OS-X could you tell us what they are. We'd really want to see the QEMU driver enabled Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
