Troubleshooting

You cannot build from source

You run

glide install
go build

And you get:

Package libvirt was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libvirt.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libvirt' found
pkg-config: exit status 1

You probably need libvirt-dev(el) package installed.

apt install libvirt-dev

Bug in libvirt

There is a bug in libvirt that seems to be causing problems to unlink volumes. Tracked here.

cannot unlink file '/var/lib/libvirt/images/XXXXXXXXXXXX': Permission denied

Selinux on Debian distros

On Debian distros SELinux is enforced by qemu even if it is disabled globally, this might cause unexpected Could not open '/var/lib/libvirt/images/<FILE_NAME>': Permission denied errors.

Double check that security_driver = "none" is uncommented in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf and issue sudo systemctl restart libvirt-bin to restart the daemon.

cannot find the "context" package (when building from src)

When trying to build the pkg from source, you get cannot find package "context"

go build
