Using XenAPI
Hi all,
I have installed Fedora Core 8 with xen 3.1.2, xen 3.1.2-devel,
xen3.1.2-libs and kernel RPMS. My domain 0 is also running fine, but I want
to use Xen API C bindings for controlling the guests (dont want libvirt). I
would like to know how come headers, .so's are not installed with the RPMS?
and also how to get the required headers and .so's (I guess its libxen.so)
for using the Xen API.
Thanks in Advance

Regards
Chetan

For reasons I don't recall / predate my maintainence of Fedora Xen packages,
we don't use the 'make install' rule in the RPM, instead manually installing
the headers / libs wanted. Unfortunately we've not got the Xen API libs or
headers being installed by the RPM. Please file a BZ against 'xen' in the
Fedora bug tracker and we can look at fixing this for the next update.

Regards,
Dan.
