Jonathan Lebon reported an issue to me off-list about his build failing to use qemu because he failed to install yajl-devel. But I recalled specifically tweaking configure.ac to die in that situation (commits 350583c, ba9c38b). After a bit more head-scratching, we found the cause of the regression: commit 654c709 rearranged things so that the qemu version check now occurs before AC_ARG_WITH has had a chance to set either $with_qemu or $with_yajl. Coincidentally, this fix aligns with a documentation patch that was just posted to the autoconf mailing list :) http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.autoconf.patches/8324 * m4/virt-lib.m4 (LIBVIRT_CHECK_LIB, LIBVIRT_CHECK_LIB_ALT) (LIBVIRT_CHECK_PKG): Populate defaults earlier. * configure.ac (AC_ARG_WITH): Likewise for drivers.

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.
