Unable to inspect VM

[rishabhkemni]

I have already installed libguestfs and also downloaded libguestfs.org/guestfs

when i try to run inspect-vm.go file initially was getting error of -lguestfs not found in /usr/bin/ld

Secondly when tried resolving this encontered new error
"go build libguestfs.org/guestfs: invalid flag in #cgo CFLAGS: -UGUESTFS_NO_DEPRECATED"

Any help or advice is appreciable!

@rishabhkemni libguestfs does not really use issues and PRs in github, so it is best to send questions and patches to libguestfs ML: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libguestfs

Anyway I think that to get -lguestfs working you need to have libguestfs installed in the system together with the development files. Depending on the distribution used this might be called libguestfs-dev, libguestfs-devel or something similar.

Try doing that, then continue with your build as usual and hopefully everything will go well. If not, then gather all the information about your build, ideally create the smallest possible reproducer and follow up on the mailing list.

If there is a legitimate bug you can also create a bug in a bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com

Have a nice day.
