Oh right, RHEL 6 uses the older scheme with fewer packages.  And it
appears that you are using a downstream fork of RHEL, given your
previous mail:

If you were using RHEL, I'd suggest opening a support ticket with Red
Hat.  But as you are using a downstream fork, I'm not sure what else to
suggest that you try.

This is the package that provided libvirt with qemu support in RHEL 6,
and which got split into libvirt-daemon-* for Fedora.

You may be missing the distro version of qemu (that is, your self-build
qemu at /usr/local/bin/qemu-x86_64 is not the same as what RHEL ships,
and since you are using the RHEL libvirt, it may not know to look for a
self-built alternative).

This request still applies.
