I am a newbie in coding. I am using ubuntu 14.04 in my machine and installed libguestfs by the following command:
sudo apt-get install libguestfs-tools
I get to run guestfish properly from terminal. But as it happens I want to write a program in C++ and i want to include the guestfs.h file in the program. I have tried and searched many options but have not found any. Is there something I am doing wrong? Can you please help me getting the file. If you can show me a way then it would be great cause I have been trying for three days in a row.
libguestfs-tools contains just the command line utilities provided by libguestfs. In a distribution like Ubuntu, the headers for developing with a library are usually shipped in development packaged named <library>-dev. In the case of libguestfs on Ubuntu, the right package is libguestfs-dev -- you can also check the online resource http://packages.ubuntu.com which helps to find packages available in Ubuntu, and also to locate files shipped. -- Pino Toscano
