[ install libvirt-snmp ]

download libvirt-snmp via git

#  git clone git://libvirt.org/libvirt-snmp.git

# cd libvirt-snmp

error

# ./autobuild.sh <snip> checking for LIBVIRT... no configure: error: Package requirements (libvirt >= 0.8.0) were not met: No package 'libvirt' found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBVIRT_CFLAGS and LIBVIRT_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.

no libvirt traces..

# pkg-config --list-all | grep libvirt #

it seems that I need to install libvirt library

# apt-get install libvirt-dev

# pkg-config --list-all | grep libvirt libvirt                        libvirt - libvirt library

again .. error

I forgot installing snmp related packages which are required to build libvirt-snmp.
install snmp packages which are required to build libvirt-snmp

# apt-get install snmp snmpd libsnmp-dev libsnmp-perl –y

# ./autobuild.sh

libvirt-snmp.tgz will be created under “libvirt-snmp/build” directory.

# ls ~/libvirt-snmp/build/*.tar.gz /root/libvirt-snmp/build/libvirt-snmp-0.0.3.tar.gz

# cp libvirt-snmp/build/libvirt-snmp-0.0.3.tar.gz /root/ # tar xzvf libvirt-snmp-0.0.3.tar.gz # cd libvirt-snmp-0.0.3/ # ./configure # make # make install

nnn , can’t find MIBs..

download MIBs

# apt-get install -y snmp-mibs-downloader

some errors were displayed , however I was able to translate SNMP GET replies with MIBs.
