By default, libtool builds two .o files for every .lo rule: src/foo.o - static builds src/.libs/foo.o - shared library builds But since commit ad42b34b disabled static builds, src/foo.o is no longer built by default. On a fresh checkout, this means our protocol check rules using pdwtags were testing a missing file, and thanks to a lousy behavior of pdwtags happily giving no output and 0 exit status (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/949034), we were merely claiming that "dwarves is too old" and skipping the test. However, if you swap between branches and do incremental builds, such as building v0.10.2-maint and then switching back to master, you end up with src/foo.o being leftover from its 0.10.2 state, and then 'make check' fails because the .o file does not match the protocol-structs file due to API additions in the meantime. A simpler fix would be to always look in .libs for the .o to be parsed; but since it is possible to pass ./configure options to tell libtool to do a static-only build with no shared .o, I went with the approach of finding the newest of the two files, whenever both exist. * src/Makefile.am (PDWTAGS): Ensure we test just-built file.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
