V1 here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2021-January/msg00922.html A short version of the cover letter from V1: this is a followup to my proposal to stop using netcf for the interface driver backend in Fedora/RHEL/CentOS builds and use the udev backend instead (it turns out Ubuntu already disabled netcf in 2018). Changes in V2: * removed the patch that made the default netcf=disabled even when netcf-devel was found on the host. If someone has netcf-devel installed and still wants to build without netcf, then can add "-Dnetcf=disabled" on the meson commandline. * Made the specfile changes more intelligent: * instead of hardcoding -Dnetcf=disabled, we now have a variable %{with_netcf} that is set to 1 for current Fedora (< 34) and current RHEL (< 9) but will be set to 0 for future Fedora/RHEL. This way the behavior on current OS releases will remain the same even for future libvirt. * it is possible to for netcf support off even in current/older OS releases by adding "--without netcf" to the rpmbuild commandline. I think at this point I would be comfortable pushing these patches, unless someone has misgivings about it...
