It looks as though the qemu package is built without Gluster support. So I added the --with-glusterfs flag and tried to rebuilt the RPM. I am now getting this error: ERROR ERROR: User requested feature GlusterFS backend support ERROR: configure was not able to find it ERROR What is configure looking for that it can't find? Again glusterfs-server and glusterfs-devel packages are installed.
