Re: [Xen-API] xen-api compile issue

[Jonathan Ludlam <Jonathan.Ludlam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Apologies, those instructions are a little out-of-date. The problem is that 
xapi and xen-api-libs progress more-or-less in lockstep, and the RPMs of the 
libs haven't been updated in a while.

The best thing to do until I can update the RPMs purge xapi-libs, then build it 
from the github repo (check it out, ./autogen.sh, ./configure, etc), then make 
install. Then try xapi again. You'll need ocaml-3.12.0 too.
