[libvirt] Changing test_driver.c file

[Arun Viswanath]

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the response.
As mentioned I need to build the libvirt and install it in different VM.

I'm new to libvirt and new to C programming as well. Will you provide me
any reference about all different way to build and install the libvirt.

Thanks In Advance,
Arun V
