What does "from the redhat package"  mean?

We'd need a virtinst and libvirt upload as well - otherwise things like
vm creation, etc. won't work reliably. I've uploaded a backport of
current libvirt to:

Could you check if this works probably for you on Lenny? If so I'll push
this one and we can handle virtinst and virt-manager next.
