I'm sure there is, but is it worth it? If lots of developers hit this, then maybe... For now, your best bet might be to build the latest versions of those tools yourself, e.g., via this script: http://people.redhat.com/meyering/autotools-install Once you've downloaded it, run bash autotools-install --help -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
