Are we? scrub is needed if and only if you want to pass a special
algorithm to virStorageVolWipePattern(). Does that justify a runtime
dependency? We fail gracefully if scrub isn't installed. We aren't even
requiring qemu binary for daemon-driver-qemu package.

Wasn't the whole idea to drop dependencies?
