RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

This should be addressed by this commit that was in 0.8.1

    nwfilter: python bindings for nwfilter
    
    I have primarily followed the pattern of the 'secret' driver to provide
    support for the missing python bindings for the network filter API.



and in my GIT checkout everything is fine. It looks like the tar.gz of the 0.8.1 release of libvirt though included an outdated docs/libvirt-api.xml file and thus when the python bindings got built in brew, these APIs were not included. We need to find out why the libvirt-api.xml was not being re-generated correctly. Forcing regeneration in brew & rebuilding shoudl fix this.
Comment 5 Daniel Veillard 2010-05-11 13:27:56 UTC 
Argh, that's the reason ... okay, will fix, thanks !

Comment 6 Stefan Berger 2010-05-11 13:52:39 UTC 
Confirmed that in 2nd build

libvirt-python-0.8.1-2.el6.x86_64

parts of the API are also missing and docs/libvirt-api.xml does not show
the nwfilter functions. The git checkout of tag v0.8.1 does show the functions in docs/libvirt-api.xml.
Comment 7 Daniel Veillard 2010-05-12 16:30:18 UTC 
libvirt-0.8.1-3.el6 has been built in RHEL-6-candidate with the fix, it should
now export the nwfilter functions and snapshot ones from python bindings.

The problem is precisely that docs/libvirt-api.xml is not in git anymore
and the docs/Makefile.am was modified in subtle ways leading to it
not being rebuilt anymore on "make dist" like I'm used to.

Comment 8 Stefan Berger 2010-05-14 18:38:51 UTC 
I installed libvirt-0.8.1-3.el6 rpm and can confirm that the previously missing functions are now available in the python bindings.
