[virt-tools-list] libguestfs on OSX

[Justin Clift]

Hi Richard,

Had a go a while ago, at getting libguestfs working on MacOS X.

The Hivex dependency seemed the most unhappy:

****************************************************
Making all in lib
Making all in tools
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
  CC     libhivex_la-hivex.lo
hivex.c: In function 'hivex_root':
hivex.c:561: error: 'ENOKEY' undeclared (first use in this function)
hivex.c:561: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
hivex.c:561: error: for each function it appears in.)
hivex.c: In function 'hivex_value_dword':
hivex.c:1466: warning: implicit declaration of function '__bswap_32'
make[3]: *** [libhivex_la-hivex.lo] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
$

****************************************************

Adding a hard coded value for ENOKEY to hivex.c, copied from a Fedora 13
box, let it continue:

****************************************************
#define    ENOKEY        126
****************************************************

(placed it after the errno.h include in hivex.c)

It still died further along though.

Output below, mostly non-snipped, in case the various other
warnings are useful too:

This isn't on my priority list, but thought I'd mention it in case
you'd like to have a crack at it.  Happy to retest stuff for you
around other things. :)

Regards and best wishes,
