Hi to all,
Does anybody have step-by-step instructions how to install vdsm on an empty Fedora 16 machine? I need a git version of vdsm (to compile from source), so the binary rpms will not do the work.
add host via engine with rpm's, then replace them?
Is this the recommended approach, or just a workaround? Can I be sure that a "make install" will copy all the files to right places, and that I will not get crashes in the future because of the incomplete installation of vdsm?
No, make install can't install all the required files. It tries to do as much as it can but few things are distro-specific and are installed by the %install section of the rpm (at build time).
How do you guys do it?
We build and install the rpms:

./autogen.sh --system && make rpm
