A C toolkit to interract with the virtualization capabilities of Linux

Edit Package libvirt

Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization
capabilities of Linux. 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 aims to provide long term stable C API
to interact with Linux virtualization technologies.

We need a resolution to bug#1106813 before libvirt 4.7.0 can be submitted to Factory. Note that I have 4.7.0 packaged and staged in my home project

libvirt doesn't use the symbol g_uri_ref. There's likely something wrong with your libgobject installation. I just updated one of my TW machines and don't see the problem

Apparently this was an issue which can only be reproduced in the version v1.0.20201025 of the vagrant box image , I upgraded it to v1.0.20201026 and the issue is gone. Thanks @jfehlig

VirtualBox is now at version 6.1.16. please update


James Fehlig's avatar

The libvirt vbox driver is disabled. I'm happy to enable it if there is an interested maintainer.


John Shand's avatar

oh i got the impression that libvirt maintainer also was the maintainer for Virtualbox. sorry for the confusion
