Dear all, After successfully compiling libguestfs on XEN hypervisor [running ubuntu server 12.04 x64bit] i tried to ./run libguestfs-test-tool but I got this error: guestfsd: /usr/lib/libaugeas.so.0: version `AUGEAS_0.16.0' not found (required by guestfsd)

libguestfs: [00003ms] run supermin libguestfs: command: run: /usr/local/bin/supermin libguestfs: command: run: \ --build libguestfs: command: run: \ --verbose libguestfs: command: run: \ --if-newer libguestfs: command: run: \ --lock /home/str/libguestfs-1.30.3/tmp/.guestfs-1000/lock libguestfs: command: run: \ --copy-kernel libguestfs: command: run: \ -f ext2 libguestfs: command: run: \ --host-cpu x86_64 libguestfs: command: run: \ /home/str/libguestfs-1.30.3/appliance/supermin.d libguestfs: command: run: \ -o /home/str/libguestfs-1.30.3/tmp/.guestfs-1000/appliance.d supermin: version: 5.1.13 supermin: package handler: debian/dpkg supermin: acquiring lock on /home/str/libguestfs-1.30.3/tmp/.guestfs-1000/lock supermin: if-newer: output does not need rebuilding

Goodmornin, Since I am running ubuntu I did " nm -D /usr/lib64/libaugeas.so.0 | grep AUGEAS " and I didn't find "AUGEAS_0.16.0" , but I got this instead : 0000000000000000 A AUGEAS_0.1.0 0000000000000000 A AUGEAS_0.10.0 0000000000000000 A AUGEAS_0.11.0 0000000000000000 A AUGEAS_0.12.0 0000000000000000 A AUGEAS_0.14.0 0000000000000000 A AUGEAS_0.15.0 0000000000000000 A AUGEAS_0.8.0 Also removed the tmp/.guestfs-1000 folder as you requested and then rerun ' make quickcheck' but still . Hmm seems weird I downloaded and compiled successfully augeas library 1.4 version from the tarball , it's the latest version, correct me if I am not wrong ?
