[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#533539: Bug#533539: virtinst: creating a new guest fails with (create:466) Generating macaddr failed

Hi,

I have applied it to 0.400.3 and rebuilt the package - it works! I can 
create a guest even if the default route is pointing to "dev brlan".

Just to note as I have not mentioned it when I created this bug - when 
not looking into virt-manager.log or invoking virt-manager in foreground 
with debug enabled - you will not get any error message or so on that. 
Just the MAC address input box in the last step on creating a new guest 
is empty - and is refusing to finally create a guest as long as you do 
not create a MAC address on your own...

Cheers,
Andreas
