If you build from libvirt.git and are on a Fedora-based system, then using ./autogen.sh --system will set up the preferred arguments to configure (these include --prefix=/usr --libdir=$prefix/$lib --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var, where $lib is either lib or lib64). I'm not quite sure what default directories a debian-based install prefers; patches are welcome to ./autogen.sh to account for any differences to match debian-preferred layout. -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
