I don't remember this before.. checking for DEVMAPPER... checking libdevmapper.h usability... no checking libdevmapper.h presence... no checking for libdevmapper.h... no checking for dm_task_run in -ldevmapper... no configure: error: You must install device-mapper-devel/<div id=":104" class="ii gt">libdevmapper >= 1.0.0 to compile libvirt Any suggestion besides moving to linux ? cheers, gary</div> <div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Apr 26, 2010 at 4:09 AM, Daniel Veillard <<a href="mailto:veillard@redhat.com">veillard@redhat.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"><div><div></div><div class="h5">On Mon, Apr 26, 2010 at 01:40:11AM -0600, gary mazzaferro wrote: > Hi, > > I'm revisiting my libVirt install for opensolaris.
