But it seems that source packages (.tar.gz) doesn't do like this,
so makes hard to compile source packages on RHEL6 for other users.
Right?
It's true that the upstream source packages don't automatically search
for 'febootstrap3', but I don't think this is a problem since that is
a RHEL 6 peculiarity, and it's easily worked around using
FEBOOTSTRAP=febootstrap3. There are several other non-upstream
changes that we (Red Hat) make in RHEL, such as including the old
virt-inspector and removing unsupported features.
Rich.

virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines. Tiny program with many
powerful monitoring features, net stats, disk stats, logging, etc.
