[Libvir] Libvirt Build problems

[Omer Khalid]

Hello Daniel,

Thanks for you help. I installed xen-devel rpms and manage to make, make
check and make install libvirt.

Then I tried to test it by trying the simple python script given on the
libvirt site.
http://libvirt.org/python.html

It failed and complained about not finding libvirt module. I guess Python
was unable to locate it. I thought "make install" for libvirt would have
taken care of it, but seems not to.
How could I make Python aware of my libvirt module? Do I need to create an
envoirnmental variable or else?

====
Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "testLibvirt.py", line 1, in ?
    import libvirt
ImportError: No module named libvirt
====

Any help would be much appreciated!

Cheers
Omer
