We're trying to build collectd in EPEL 5. It fails because the version of libvirt is missing a symbol which was added relatively recently.
How do I find out what precise versions of packages are in the EPEL builders?

I had that same issue recently when building collectd at work. libvirt on rhel5 has that symbol (virDomainBlockstats or something). The problem is that autoconf is compiling a test program against libvirt, which fails because it can find -lxenstore. Adding xen-devel to the BR of collectd fixes this, but this probably a bug in libvirt.

Yes, we tracked it down and in fact it's a bug in the RHEL5 libvirt package (460138), with dependencies as you say.
I have now built collectd in the EL-5 branch. A few other fixes were needed too.

Ah, great.
Are you considering EL-4 as well? We've build it locally without the libvirt plugin. The only thing I had to change was the BR on libpcap-devel. That one's libpcap on Rhel4.
