[Xen-users] Compiling Xen 3.1.0-src on Debian AMD64 Machine

["Ben Minton" <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I am trying to compile Xen 3.1.0 via sources onto a Debian Etch AMD64 machine. I read through the README docs several times and then located this document.

http://www.math.dartmouth.edu/~sarunas/xen_304_hvm_etch.html

This is the list of extra applications that I have installed onto the Etch machine:

# Debian packages

apt-get install gcc -y
apt-get install make -y
apt-get install binutils -y
apt-get install zlib1g-dev -y
apt-get install python-dev -y
apt-get install libncurses5-dev -y
# apt-get install openssl-dev -y
apt-get install openssl -y
apt-get install xorg-dev -y
apt-get install bridge-utils -y
apt-get install iproute -y
apt-get install udev -y

# Install system tools

apt-get install bcc -y
apt-get install bin86 -y
apt-get install libc6-dev -y
apt-get install libc6-dev-i386 -y
apt-get install x-dev -y
apt-get install kernel-package -y
apt-get install build-essential -y

I commenced the compile using "make world" and it almost successfully completed. The failure seems to be concerned with openssl headers.

Error output =>

XENFB_TOOLS=n ./chk build

I did some searching through the xen-user archive but have been unable to find an exact match for the failure.

uname -a:
Linux xendesk 2.6.18-4-amd64 #1 SMP Fri May 4 00:37:33 UTC 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux
ls -l /lib/libc.so.6:
libc-2.3.6.so

Thanks in advance, bdm.
