With this script you can run libvirt programs without needing to install them first. You just have to do for example: ./run ./tools/virsh [args ...] If you are already in the tools/ subdirectory, then the following command will also work: ../run ./virsh [...] You can also run the C programs under valgrind like this: ./run valgrind [valgrind opts...] ./program or under gdb: ./run gdb --args ./program This also works with sudo (eg. if you need root access for libvirt): sudo ./run ./tools/virsh list --all Derived from libguestfs and simplified. The ./run script in libguestfs is much more sophisticated: https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/blob/master/run.in
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
