Wierd issue, I have a ryzen 9 - 32gb machine and this build ate all the ram and froze my machine. WTF???

Why would this build require so much ram all at once?

After installation, an additional change to /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf is required to change user and group values to existing ones.

clcr commented on 2022-04-30 19:01 (UTC)

Requires changes to references of qemu.conf to qemu.conf.in.

Appears to fail pretty badly building in a chroot (same chroot base builds ~1k other packages fine):

@honsunrise: Good question; that seems like an oversight (I just adopted this recipe)

Corrected

honsunrise commented on 2020-11-06 18:48 (UTC)

Why does this package need to depend on libvirt?

@nullbyte4532: Thank you, incorporated your fix to avoid the /usr/sbin symlink being replace in situ

I just got an error saying that /usr/sbin already exists in filesystem. In my system (i have manjaro installed, not vanilla arch) /usr/sbin is a symlink to /usr/bin This seemed to help:

@hakayova Your issue revolves around the build process of libvirt detecting that you have Wireshark on your system and trying to build in a specific Wireshark library which doesn't get packaged on Arch even though it gets packaged on Fedora. There used to be a work around on the old build system but I'm not quite sure what equivalent of "--without-wireshark-dissector" is for meson. For now, the easiest workaround is to uninstall wireshark while building this package or to build this package in a clean chroot.
