Install > the libvirt-debuginfo (or equivalent for non-Fedora), This in itself was going to be a problem, because I hand-compiled libvirt from source (even in debian squeeze I think the version of libvirt is too old). I attempted to convert the rpms for FC12 distributed on the libvirt site into debian packages using alien. I'm surprised to report that this appears to work -- the rpm binary is stable and everything is still working. I had to spend some time manually resolving library dependencies. Two hacks: 1) I had to symlink libaudit.so.0 to libaudit.so.1 since .1 doesn't exist on debian squeeze. I figured this was a difference in version which would probably cause problems, but I'm not using audits anyway 2) I symlinked the python bindings into the python 2.6 package directory, but it looks like 2.7 is not strictly required I also had to install netcf-libs from rpm because no equivalent exists on debian. I've installed the debug symbols rpm package as well, so if I do see the problem again I'll be able to gdb it. However it seems 0.8.6 doesn't have whatever bug that was, because I haven't been able to reproduce it. --Igor
