Hi,

I had tried that and found numerous packages that were needed as a pre-req, so 
I thought of trying the make rpm route.
Anyway, I went back to rpmbuild -ta and installed all the pre-req packages, 
RHEL has them in their repo so it made it easier than I though.
Except for "numad is needed by libvirt-0.9.11-1.el6.x86_64", and I can't find 
numad RHEL rpm, I am not sure where to get numad source code to compile?

Thanks

  Try rpmbuild -ta libvirt-0.9.11.tar.gz

"make rpm" is more for people working out of a git checkout, ou may
end up with missing dependancies leading to a failure to "make dist".

rpmbuild may raise a number of missing dependencies that you may
have to supply locally first before actually making a build.
