Allow people to build external bindings using the 'run' script
by defining the PKG_CONFIG_PATH var in it. eg to build Python
you could do
../libvirt/run python setup.py build

Make the lock plugin use virFileFindResource to find the
virtlockd daemon path, so that it executes the in-builddir
daemon if run from source tree.

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.

It makes no sense to prohibit reuse of the wrapper in other LGPL
projects, since most of libvirt is designed to be LGPL. Of
course, when using the wrapper to wrap a GPL program, the combined
result is still effectively GPL, but that shouldn't force us to
license the wrapper as GPL in isolation.
* run.in: Relicense to LGPLv2+.
Nothing in run required bash, except for the shebang. On systems
where /bin/bash doesn't exist (I hit it on FreeBSD), using /bin/sh
instead fixes a 'make check' failure:
gmake[3]: Entering directory `/usr/home/dummy/libvirt/python'
GEN check-local
/usr/local/bin/bash: ../run: /bin/bash: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
* run.in: Use /bin/sh, not bash.
This adds a 'lockd' lock driver which is just a client which
talks to the lockd daemon to perform all locking. This will
be the default lock driver for any hypervisor which needs one.
* src/Makefile.am: Add lockd.so plugin
* src/locking/lock_driver_lockd.c: Lockd driver impl

With this script you can run libvirt programs without needing to
install them first. You just have to do for example:
./run ./tools/virsh [args ...]
If you are already in the tools/ subdirectory, then the following
command will also work:
../run ./virsh [...]
You can also run the C programs under valgrind like this:
./run valgrind [valgrind opts...] ./program
or under gdb:
./run gdb --args ./program
This also works with sudo (eg. if you need root access for libvirt):
sudo ./run ./tools/virsh list --all
Derived from libguestfs and simplified. The ./run script in
libguestfs is much more sophisticated:
