Greetings,
I had been trying to install qemu from the source. I tried both the methods
given on https://www.qemu.org/downloads/#source
And also as given on https://wiki.qemu.org/Hosts/Linux

But in all cases ,I am getting same error every time. Screenshot attached.
Request you all to kindly look into this.

Thanks & Regards
Asmita

Could it be that you have a statically compiled libbz2 but are building
a dynamically linked QEMU?

Does QEMU ./configure --static ... help?

Hi Stefan,
Thanks  for your response. I am not sure I compiled libbz2.
Because while installing qemu from source , I just followed the steps as
mentioned in wiki.
I am noob in this field.

I tried using ./configure --static, it gave an error as attached in
screenshot.

Thanks & Regards
Asmita

In the screenshot the linker cannot find the library dependencies needed
to build QEMU.

There are Dockerfiles that show how to build QEMU on a number of Linux
distributions. For example, the Fedora Dockerfile is here:
tests/docker/dockerfiles/fedora.docker

This could help you in setting up the environment (which packages are
needed, etc).
