Hi,

During compilation of guestfs I get the following error:

*supermin -v -o supermin.d --names augeas-libs btrfs-progs cryptsetup
cryptsetup-luks e2fsprogs e4fsprogs genisoimage gfs-utils gfs2-utils grub

supermin 4.1.1
supermin: could not detect package manager used by this system or distro.

If this is a new Linux distro, or not Linux, or a Linux distro that uses
an unusual packaging format then you may need to port supermin.  If
you are expecting that supermin should work on this system or distro
then it may be that the package detection code is not working.
make[2]: *** [stamp-supermin] Error 1*

Now, I installed supermin from git. During configuration it discovered
zypper:

*checking for zypper... zypper
checking for yum... no
checking for rpm... rpm
checking for yumdownloader... no
checking for aptitude... no
checking for apt-cache... apt-cache
checking for dpkg... no
checking if apt-cache depends --recurse is broken... yes
checking for pacman... no*

I have the following file:

*> cat /etc/SuSE-release
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64)
VERSION = 11
PATCHLEVEL = 2*

What am I missing here ?
Why do I get this error ?

Thanks,

Or
