The python binding now lives in
http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt-python.git
that repo also provides an RPM which is upgrade compatible
with the old libvirt-python sub-RPM.

The gnulib testsuite is relatively stable - the only times it is
likely to have a test change from pass to fail is on a gnulib
submodule update or a major system change (such as moving from
Fedora 18 to 19, or other large change to libc). While it is an
important test for end users on arbitrary machines (to make sure
that the portability glue works for their machine), it mostly
wastes time for development testing (as most developers aren't
making any of the major changes that would cause gnulib tests
to alter behavior). Thus, it pays to make the tests optional
at configure time, defaulting to off for development, on for
tarballs, with autobuilders requesting it to be on. It also
helps to allow a make-time override, via VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE=[01]
(much the way automake sets up V=[01] for overriding the configure
time default of how verbose to be).
Automake has some pretty hard-coded magic with regards to the
TESTS variable; I had quite a job figuring out how to keep
'make distcheck' passing regardless of the configure option
setting in use, while still disabling the tests at runtime
when I did not configure them on and did not use the override
variable. Thankfully, we require GNU make, which lets me
hide some information from Automake's magic handling of TESTS.
* bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_epilogue): Munge gnulib test variable.
* configure.ac (--enable-expensive-tests): Add new enable switch.
(VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE_DEFAULT, WITH_EXPENSIVE_TESTS): Set new
witnesses.
* gnulib/tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Make tests conditional on
configure settings and the VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE variable.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Expose VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE
to all tests.
* autobuild.sh: Enable all tests during autobuilds.
* libvirt.spec.in (%configure): Likewise.
* mingw-libvirt.spec.in (%mingw_configure): Likewise.
* docs/hacking.html.in: Document the option.
* HACKING: Regenerate.

Add <features> and <compat> elements to volume target XML.
<compat> is a string which for qcow2 represents the QEMU version
it should be compatible with. Valid values are 0.10 and 1.1.
1.1 is implicit if the <features> element is present, otherwise
qemu-img default is used. 0.10 can be specified to explicitly
create older images after the qemu-img default changes.
<features> contains optional features, so far
<lazy_refcounts/> is available, which enables caching of reference
counters, improving performance for snapshots.
Nested conditionals are hard to read if they are not indented.
We can't add arbitrary whitespace to everything in spec files,
but we CAN add spaces before %if and %define. Use this trick,
plus a fancy sed script that rewrites a spec file into a C
file, so we can use cppi to keep our spec file nice.
For reference, the sed script converts code like:
|# RHEL-5 builds are client-only for s390, ppc
|%if 0%{?rhel} == 5
| %ifnarch %{ix86} x86_64 ia64
| %define client_only 1
| %endif
|%endif
into the following for cppi:
|// # RHEL-5 builds are client-only for s390, ppc
|#if a // 0%{?rhel} == 5
|# if a // %{ix86} x86_64 ia64
|# define client_only 1
|# endif
|#endif
and errors from 'make syntax-check' look like:
spec_indentation
cppi: mingw-libvirt.spec.in: line 130: not properly indented
maint.mk: incorrect preprocessor indentation
* libvirt.spec.in: Add some indentation to make it easier to follow
various conditionals.
* mingw-libvirt-spec.in: Likewise.
* cfg.mk (sc_spec_indentation): New syntax check to enforce it.
This patch introduces support for LXC specific public APIs. In
common with what was done for QEMU, this creates a libvirt_lxc.so
library and libvirt/libvirt-lxc.h header file.
The actual APIs are
int virDomainLxcOpenNamespace(virDomainPtr domain,
int **fdlist,
unsigned int flags);
int virDomainLxcEnterNamespace(virDomainPtr domain,
unsigned int nfdlist,
int *fdlist,
unsigned int *noldfdlist,
int **oldfdlist,
unsigned int flags);
which provide a way to use the setns() system call to move the
calling process into the container's namespace. It is not
practical to write in a generically applicable manner. The
nearest that we could get to such an API would be an API which
allows to pass a command + argv to be executed inside a
container. Even if we had such a generic API, this LXC specific
API is still useful, because it allows the caller to maintain
the current process context, in particular any I/O streams they
have open.
NB the virDomainLxcEnterNamespace() API is special in that it
runs client side, so does not involve the internal driver API.

Commit d13155c changed which files get installed for the
libvirt-guests service, but did not touch up the mingw spec
file. As a result, rpmbuild complained:
RPM build errors:
Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/libexec/libvirt-guests.sh
/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/libexec/libvirt-guests.sh
which in turn breaks ./autobuild.sh when cross-compilers are present.
* mingw-libvirt.spec.in: Remove files not relevant to mingw.

The Mingw32 toolchain is broadly obsoleted by the Mingw64 toolchain.
The latter has been adopted by Fedora 17 and newer. Maintaining a
RPM spec for Mingw32 is a needless burden, so switch to a Mingw64
RPM spec (which provides 32 & 64 bit builds).

* .cvsignore, Makefile.am, autobuild.sh, configure.in,
mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Import the latest MinGW libvirt spec
file. Note that the file has been renamed to conform to
new Fedora packaging guidelines.
* autobuild.sh: Fix a bug in the generation of the $EXTRA_RELEASE
field when autobuilding.
