I have met with this error and have no idea how to fix this:

Hi,

the reason is that Libvmi API changed: https://github.com/libvmi/libvmi/blob/master/libvmi/libvmi.h#L685

the translation_mechanism_t is now a typedef on uint32_t, and not an enum, so libvmi-python needs to be updated too.

The nested support changed the interface to page tables translation interface: https://github.com/libvmi/libvmi/pull/956

You can continue using the release version of LibVMI for now: https://github.com/libvmi/libvmi/releases/tag/v0.14.0

@Wenzel @tklengyel Thanks for answering. v0.14.0 works for me.
