Hi,
I am trying to follow the basic procedure described here
https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm
This is not a good place to look for the instructions. The right place is:
https://ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/vdsm/developers.html
to build vdsm rpm from source on my CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810
(Core)
host.
had to add some dependencies on the way ofcourse, so at that point i am
able to make most of it except for python error described below resulting
from the "make rpm" part of procedure.
Am I missing something?
This is a good topic for devel, adding.
Thanks

Never had this error.
After you prepare the host as described in:
https://ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/vdsm/developers.html#installing...
https://ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/vdsm/developers.html#getting-th...
https://ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/vdsm/developers.html#installing...
is to install latest release of vdsm:
yum install vdsm vdsm-client
Otherwise you will have to painfully install some of the packages or
install lot of packages you
don't need (e.g. mostly lot of hooks).
When your host is ready, you can build vdsm from source and upgrade the
installed packages:
git clean -dxf
./autogen.sh --system --enable-timestamp
make
rm -rf ~/rpmbuild
make rpm
(cd ~/rpmbuild/RPMS && sudo yum upgrade */*.rpm)
I think we should drop instructions in vdsm README, and point to the page
on ovirt.org,
or replace them with short version that works and easier to maintain.
