[Libguestfs] Pango error when compiling virt-p2v on RHEL 7 (was: Re: Regarding libguestfs)

[abinaya.manikandan at wipro.com]

Hi Richard,

Would like to know the importance of p2v directory in libguestfs. Because we could successfully run the build in rhel6 but in rhel7 it throws all kinds of minor errors.
So is it a good idea to remove gtk+pango thus removing p2v directory?
Please suggest the best way to exclude this pango error.

Regards,
Abinaya

Removing pango-devel most likely disables gtk, thus disabling compilation of virt-p2v.  Which is one way to fix it, but I suppose it depends on if you need virt-p2v ...

As the error message says, automake is missing.  I suppose removing pango also removed automake for whatever reason, or you removed or changed the version of automake while you were removing pango.

I cannot reproduce the original problem right now, but I'm looking at it.

Rich.
