Look closely at the ./configure output and the README file. - - - I notice you wrote on the AUR about problems using the appliance. If you're doing ./configure --disable-appliance, then it's not really surprising that the appliance doesn't get built. You should test this first of all by building from source, and without installing, running using the `./run' script. eg: ./run guestfish -N fs -m /dev/sda1 touch /this_is_a_file does that run without errors, create a file called `test1.img' which is a disk image containing a filesystem? If there are errors, post the *complete* output of the commands when debugging is enabled. It is very important that you do not edit or abbreviate the output. And read this: http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-faq.1.html#debug I am able to build and run libguestfs on ArchLinux.
