Title: Package Request: libguestfs.
Post by: dreieck on 10 October 2023, 12:47:48
Hereby I express my wish that the package "libguestfs" is added to Artix.

The package from the Arch Linux repository extra/libguestfs (https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/libguestfs/) fails to install due to systemd-requirements, so having a specific systemd-free build of it would be really helpful.

libguestfs is for manipulating and working with Virtual Machine disk images and complements libvirt, and a few other packages (not in the Artix repositories) build upon it.

Regards!

I had a look at this once, but it did not not seem feasible to get it to work without systemd without major changes.

For me, the adptopted aur/libguestfs-git (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libguestfs-git)  builds. See this post (https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,6029.msg37540.html#msg37540).
