Actually, $cfg->libDir is virQEMUDriverConfigNew ()
cfg->configBaseDir/qemu/lib, so it ends up under ~/.config for users,
and /etc for priviledged/root. A bad place to store transient runtime
data/sockets. You may want to reconsider the paths for pr-helper.

I don't intend to change that, so you could take a look at "[libvirt
PATCH v2 0/9]".
