[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#577728: /usr/sbin/libvirtd: libvirtd segfaults when run with --timeout option

[Svend Sorensen]

Package: libvirt-bin
Version: 0.8.0-1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/sbin/libvirtd


When I run libvirtd with a --timeout option from a normal user account,
it segfaults. libvirtd does not segfault if I omit the timeout option.

$ /usr/sbin/libvirtd --timeout=30
