Hi Libguestfs team,
I'm trying to build guestfs on Ubuntu 22.04, but getting below error.
#17 8.021 checking for OCaml findlib package augeas... not found
#17 8.024 configure: error: the OCaml module 'augeas' is required
By guestfs-building doc I need to get the package from https://
people.redhat.com/~rjones/augeas/. But there is not instructions on how and
where to place the package .tar file? I downloaded the .tar and untar it to /
usr/local/ but that does not help.
Can anyone please help on how to resolve this issue?
In addition to Laszlo's answer, an alterative is to compile libguestfs
from git after reverting this commit:
https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/fbf7fe87933ac24dd78362a16...
This will "rebundle" ocaml-augeas.
However I would recommend working with the Debian developers to get
ocaml-augeas added to Debian as that will make everyone's life easier.
Rich.
Thanks,
Chintan
