[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#513605: libvirt0: hardcodes ssh port [patch]

[Adrian Bridgett]

Package: libvirt0
Version: 0.5.1-4
Severity: major

(major since it makes it unusable if you move ssh to a non-standard
port)

For some bizarre reason, libvirt forces the port when it calls ssh to
22.  Why they don't just leave it empty I don't know - 22 _is_ the
default and you could always override it in ~/.ssh/config.

Anyway, this turns off this silly bit of code.  If it gains the
ability to _override_ the port in future, then fine.

Thanks for packaging this - now I look forward to being able to use
virt-manager (which also had this dumb hardcoding but went a step
further in that it also talked as root because remote root access is
such a _good_ idea!)
