grep -q is not POSIX, but then again, in a spec file, where you can
assume chkconfig exists, you can assume grep -q exists.  I was going to
suggest saving a process:

case $(/sbin/chkconfig --list libvirt-guests) in
  *:on*) ...
esac

but it's not worth it, for how seldom the shell code in a spec file is run.

ACK, and pushed as-is.
