I have made available a Python package for the current stable branch
version of libguestfs:

  http://libguestfs.org/download/python/

If you need to use libguestfs from Python this way, you can do so like
this:

  pip install http://libguestfs.org/download/python/guestfs-1.32.6.tar.gz

A few caveats:

 - You should probably not use these packages.  Use the
   python-libguestfs package provided by your Linux distro, as it is
   always up to date w.r.t the latest libguestfs APIs.

 - This Python package does not build libguestfs, so you have to get
   the library from your Linux distro.

 - The package depends implicitly on libguestfs-devel, pip and gcc.

 - On Fedora the package also depends on redhat-rpm-config.

 - This package is not available on Pypi because of ongoing licensing
   issues we are trying to resolve.  Please do not upload it there.

Rich.
