I was missing this. Retrying with it.
Yep -- 'rpm-devel' and 'zlib-static' (which was not pulled in by `dnf
builddep supermin`, though) package did it (thanks Pino):
Build `supermin:
$ dnf install xz-static
$ sudo dnf install rpm-devel -y
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make check
[. . .]
# TOTAL: 8
# PASS: 8
[. . .]
Check for rpm driver:
$ ../src/supermin --list-drivers | grep fedora
fedora/rpm detected
Prepare and build the appliance using the existing script from source
tree:
$ ./build-basic-vm.sh
$ cd basic-full-appliance/
Boot it:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 512 -kernel kernel \
-initrd initrd -serial mon:stdio \
-append 'console=ttyS0,115200,selinux=0' \
-drive file=root,format=raw,if=virtio \
-nographic -nodefconfig -nodefaults
[. . .]
bash-4.3#
Thanks.
