Please note that vm_env_setup.sh runs perfectly on fedora 23. If you have other distros/versions, kindly at least do the following, to speed up the workshop:
install the pip2 module perf-script-postprocessor. You might get dependency erros on rpm based systems. So install the equivalent of following packages.
gcc lapack lapack-devel blas blas-devel gcc-gfortran gcc-c++ liblas libffi-devel libxml-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel redhat-rpm-configinstall @Virtualization packages for your distro, as well as qemu-kvm ..so we could use virsh / virt-install / qemu-kvm as accelerator..
run the following part from vm_env_setup.sh, as following..
# ./handy_minimalistic.sh
Cheers.
