[fedora-virt] Should python-virtinst %require libvirt?

[James Laska]

Greetings,

Quick question about virt package dependencies.  The Rawhide Acceptance
Install Test (which does a virt install) [1] first installs the required
packages by doing:

  # yum -y install qemu-kvm python-virtinst pax

It seems that installing python-virtinst used to also pull libvirt into
the transaction.  However, this is no longer the case [2].  Should the
deps chain when installing python-virtinst also install libvirt?  Or is
it expected that if you wish to run your own virt daemon, you should
install libvirtd?

Thanks,
James
