[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#526718: libvirt: Please enable LXC (Linux Containers) and possibly OpenVZ support in libvirt

[Daniel Pittman]

Package: libvirt0
Version: 0.6.2-2
Severity: wishlist
File: libvirt

G'day.

Now that the Linux Containers (lxc) package has made it into unstable, it
would be really great if libvirt was built with support for them; the current
and next versions both support using them.

It would also be kind of nice if OpenVZ containers were supported, since
I noticed them on the way past to checking when lxc came in; I don't currently
use them, but they will be available again at some point.


Thank you very much for packaging libvirt in any case.

Regards,
       Daniel
