With USE=xen, libvirt-1.0.1.ebuild passes "--with-xenapi" to the configure script, which fails because it can't find libxenserver. The library isn't installed by any of the dependencies. Someone with knowledge of Xen should address the issue. Based on a quick reading of the "Xen hypervisor driver" page at libvirt.org (http://libvirt.org/drvxen.html), I commented out the line 'myconf+=" $(use_with xen xenapi)"' in the ebuild as shown in the snippet below, and compilation succeeded: ---------------------- ## hypervisors on the local host myconf="${myconf} $(use_with xen) $(use_with xen xen-inotify)" # myconf+=" $(use_with xen xenapi)" if use xen && has_version ">=app-emulation/xen-tools-4.2.0"; then myconf+=" --with-libxl" else myconf+=" --without-libxl" fi ---------------------- I don't know whether that's the correct solution, but it's necessary as long as the required dependency isn't pulled in. Update to the above: here's the source of the missing library, and we don't have it in portage (... so why is it enabled?): http://community.citrix.com/display/xs/Download+SDKs
1) Please post your `emerge --info' output in a comment. 2) Please attach the entire build log to this bug report.
I'm experiencing the same issue as Dave Armstrong. Adding 'USE=xen' results in a test for libxenserver failing thusly: checking for xen_vm_start in -lxenserver... no configure: error: You must install libxenserver and libcurl to compile the XenAPI driver Complete build log will be attached.

Created attachment 337384 [details] failed build log for libvirt-1.0.2
Never used Xen and never plan on using Xen. I can only support what users provide as feedback regarding Xen. xenapi is dropped in the tree.
