=============
2006-03-29 19:40:14 +08:00
For starters, if you just want to run virt-manager/virt-install to test out
changes, it can be done from the source directory:
2006-03-29 19:40:14 +08:00
./virt-manager
2006-03-29 19:40:14 +08:00
To install the software into /usr/local (usually), you can do:
2006-03-29 19:40:14 +08:00
python setup.py install
2006-03-29 19:40:14 +08:00
2012-10-19 03:14:40 +08:00
To build an RPM, you can run:
2006-03-29 19:40:14 +08:00
python setup.py rpm
2006-03-29 19:40:14 +08:00
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 >= 2.6
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 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'.
