From josv on IRC:
Hi! I am on Fedora 25 and installed libguestfs (1.36.2) from the fedora repo. It seems that the squashfs feature is missing in this installation (guestfish add-drive /dev/null : run : available squashfs returns "error: squashfs: group not available"). What would be the recommended way to have the squashfs feature available?
$ guestfish -a /dev/null run : supported ... squashfs no ...
$ rpm -q squashfs-tools squashfs-tools-4.3-12.fc24.x86_64
I think actually this is a bug. I'll take a look into it tomorrow.
It looks like the Fedora packaging does not have squashfs-tools as Build-Require -- adding it should do the job. Speaking of Fedora: the libosinfo dependency can be changed to osinfo-db in f25+, as we just need the osinfo data. Thanks, -- Pino Toscano
