I'm trying to set up a xen guest on a machine that already has a few others running (not set up by me). It fails with the following error:
+ virt-install -r 512 -n host5 -f /dev/vol0/lvol5 --nographics -p --os-type=linux --os-variant=rhel5 --accelerate -l http://bla -x ks=http://bla/ks.cfg -m MA:CA:DD:RE:SS Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/virt-install", line 31, in ? import libvirt File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 12, in ? import cygvirtmod as libvirtmod ImportError: No module named cygvirtmod
This is a standard CentOS 5.4 x86_64 install, and I have not been able to find a solution on the web.

Do you have the libvirt-python package installed? Also check for the virt-viewer package (which helps with a lot of virt tool errors).

These are installed:
libvirt-0.6.3-20.1.el5_4 libvirt-python-0.6.3-20.1.el5_4 python-virtinst-0.400.3-12.el5 virt-manager-0.6.1-8.el5 virt-viewer-0.0.2-3.el5
I found the erroneous code in /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/libvirt.py, and comparing it with the CentOS 5.7 version, I can fix it. But I presume I need to generate .pyc and .po as well, not sure how to do that.

Why on earth would you do that and not just 'yum update'?

Locked-down commercial environment, critical production server that cannot be taken down.
I tried to just update the relevant packages, but there are too many dependencies.
Found the problem. Someone thought it a good idea to have system-wide LD_LIBRARY_PATH settings in /etc/profile.d.
D'oh.
