The virt-clone file uses the argparse module. This module is only found in version 2.7 of Python or higher. So update the documentation to indicate Python 2.7 or higher is required. Signed-off-by: John Arbuckle <programmingkidx@gmail.com>

Basic Install
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
For starters, if you just want to run virt-manager/virt-install to test out
|
|
changes, it can be done from the source directory:
|
|
|
|
./virt-manager
|
|
|
|
To install the software into /usr/local (usually), you can do:
|
|
|
|
python setup.py install
|
|
|
|
To build an RPM, you can run:
|
|
|
|
python setup.py rpm
|
|
|
|
setup.py generally has all the build and install commands, for more info see:
|
|
|
|
python setup.py --help-commands
|
|
python setup.py install --help
|

Pre-requisite software
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
virt-manager was ported to GTK3 at the beginning of 2013. Older GTK3
|
|
or pygobject3 versions likely will not work for running virt-manager.
|
|
|
|
Earliest tested versions of major components:
|
|
|
|
python >= 2.7
|
|
gtk3 >= 3.6
|
|
libvirt-python >= 0.4.0
|
|
pygobject3 >= 3.4
|
|
libosinfo >= 0.2.10
|
|
|
|
A more detailed dependency list can be found in virt-manager.spec.in.
|
|
|
|
On Debian or Ubuntu based distributions, you need to install the
|
|
gobject-introspection bindings for some depedencies like libvirt-glib
|
|
and libosinfo. Look for package names that start with 'gir', for example
|
|
gir1.2-libosinfo-1.0
|
