Interesting, I did not know these packages existed.
even with --with-libxl it doesnt work...
There was a bug in our code that ignored the error even if --with-libxl
was requested, patch sent:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2020-February/msg00723.html
However the mentioned xen-devel package seems to contain a xenlight.pc
config file for pkg-config:
https://cbs.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=27840
so it should work.
Can you paste the config.log section beginning with 'checking for
LIBXL'?
On my Fedora 31 where I build with libxl it looks like this:
configure:23591: checking for LIBXL

4.6.0"
