I cannot get Xen compiled.  I've carefully followed the wiki here:

http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Compiling_Xen_From_Source

... especially WRT dependencies, but no change.

 

You don't mention the most important point here - you're using gcc

4.9.0. A patch for these new warnings was posted already (see

http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2014-06/msg01399.html),

but in the original shape it wasn't immediately acceptable. An

alternative got posted in response a little later. You can pick

any (especially if you're not using blktap2), or simply disable

building of the blktap code via configure option.

 

Thank you.  Be advised that I got this from the Supported download point (http://www.xenproject.org/downloads/xen-archives/xen-44-series/xen-440.html), so this is going to keep happening, or users will simply give up.

 

Also I wish I could make a number of clarifications and updates in the wiki, of issues that tripped me up for days.
