sh: line 5: qemu-img: command not found

Because qemu-img is not installed. See also: https://github.com/libguestfs/nbdkit/blob/master/tests/Makefile.am (search for "qemu-img").

Yes that fixes quite a serious bug in sfdisk (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1860461).

Updated, currently the tests are failing because ArchLinux is missing 4fe7f9b614e2b5bb97f6d89af02acb867cffccc1 in the util-linux package.

Fixed upstream in https://github.com/libguestfs/nbdkit/commit/3801317a657550624ff55c09c8b72a4c17713c98 https://github.com/libguestfs/nbdkit/commit/15d4c4f1db596b0bd4e2442f94ca908b22b7cd97 https://github.com/libguestfs/nbdkit/commit/c9f72508fe94453bfb8956953c1c00025673ba7c Fix will appear in nbdkit 1.18.2 (stable) and 1.19.3 (dev).

Thanks for the report. The upstream discussion is here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2020-March/msg00132.html

I installed libnbd first (manually) and that solved the problem.

rwmjones commented on 2020-03-16 09:04

Soft dependency. However if it turns out that the nbd standalone plugin is actually broken then compiing without libnbd around seems like it will always cause a hang, until we get that fixed upstream.

t-8ch commented on 2020-03-16 08:59

@rwmjones would you recommend making libnbd a hard or soft dependency for the nbdkit package?

rwmjones commented on 2020-03-16 08:47

And yes there is a circular dependency between libnbd <-> nbdkit, but: (1) Neither dependency is essential and (2) Old versions of one package can be used to build new versions of the other package.
