[libvirt] [PATCH v5 07/23] src: rewrite symfile library checker in Python

Mon Nov 11 14:38:10 UTC 2019


As part of an goal to eliminate Perl from libvirt build tools,
rewrite the check-symfile.pl tool in Python.

This was a straight conversion, manually going line-by-line to
change the syntax from Perl to Python. Thus the overall structure
of the file and approach is the same.
