[Bug 404060] [NEW] backport libvirt to hardy and intrepid

Public bug reported:

I have spent several weeks developing, testing, and stabilizing a
backport of Jaunty's libvirt to both Hardy and Intrepid.

This backport should be handled in conjunction with the backport of
Jaunty's kvm-84 to hardy.  While kvm-84 is not explicitly dependent on
this newer version of libvirt, it is strongly suggested to upgrade the
two together, in order to expose some of the new functionality and
address some issues.

See Bug #396721.

In the course of creating this backport, I have made a public call for testing (in my blog, #ubuntu-meeting, and on the ubuntu-server@ mailing list):
 * http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2009/07/libvirt-backport.html

Packages have been provided for testing in the Ubuntu Virt PPA.

At this point, I'm proposing this upload to hardy-backports and
intrepid-backports. I'm also marking two other similar bugs duplicates
of this one, as it should solve both of those user's requests (Bug
#321849, Bug #259821).
