... it might have happened due to the removal of the "slirp" submodule
from the git repository. For example if you see an error message like this:
Parameter 'type' expects a netdev backend type
this likely means that the "user" mode backend type is not available in
your binary anymore. To fix it, simply install "libslirp-devel" (or
libslirp-dev or however it is called) from your OS distribution and
recompile.
Thanks for the hint Thomas. I'm afraid many developers will miss your
email.
Jason, Marc-André, could we improve the buildsys check or display
a more helpful information from the code instead?
Thanks,
Phil.
