So just to be sure - if I'm reading this right, tog-pegasus 2.12.1-5 and
beyond have broken libvirt-cim?

Do the tog-pegasus developers know this?  Is there a bug to track?

Was there some expectation that libvirt-cim "change" to using
root/interop?  I guess the hard part for me is that anyone getting the
latest updates to f19 will run into this.  It doesn't matter for RHEL6
since 6.5 at least since it's only up to 2.12.0-3.

Tks,
