@CirrusThink Looks like your missing pkgconfig ./configure: line 3319: PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG: command not found

The instructions show

$ sudo apt-get install `cat deb_dependency`

However, that needs some updates, which would be:

diff --git a/deb_dependency b/deb_dependency
index 94be083..4b4056a 100644
--- a/deb_dependency
+++ b/deb_dependency

 libconfig-dev

-python-dev

Once that is done, this sequence should work:

$ sudo apt-get install `cat deb_dependency`
$ ./autogen.sh
# No pywbem, so disable smispy plugin
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --without-smispy --with-python3
$ make -j4
$ sudo mkdir -p /var/run/lsm/ipc
$ sudo make install
$ sudo systemctl start libstoragemgmt
$ lsmcli list --type pools --uri sim://

I'll open a PR to update the deb_dependency file. Thanks for reporting this!

Looks like PR failed to pass some tests, does this mean it will not merge ?

Yeah, I won't be merging it until it either passes or the failure can be explained as not a code issue. The main failure is a packaging test for debian based installs which I have a local fix I need to push up. I need to investigate the other array failure.

Tested on our Ubuntu Focal and it is working
