[libvirt] libvirt on mingw: undefined reference to htonl/ntohl

[Atsushi SAKAI]

Hi, Bericht

By your suggestion, I am recognizing python bindings are not created(on my configuration).
If you notice me to install python on MinGW, I will try to investigate it.

My posting mail is follows(it does not create python library)
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2008-June/msg00201.html
It creates general library and virsh only.

Thanks
Atsushi SAKAI
