Oh, you're right! Thank you for reporting this issue.

We don't want to revert the change though, merely to
downgrade the Requires to a Wants.

That way, libvirtd stopping (or restarting) will not
cause libvirt-guests to stop, but when starting
libvirt-guests an attempt will still be made to start
up libvirtd if it's not running already.

I'll have patches on the list shortly.
