[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#638816: tries to connect to ~/.libvirt/libvirt-sock

[Marc Haber]

Package: libvirt-bin
Version: 0.9.3-5
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/virsh

When I invoke virsh as normal user, it tries to connect to a socket in
~/.libvirt/libvirt-sock. As a libvirtd will probably never place a
socket in there, it would be a god idea to set the path in the package.

invoking virsh with --uri qemu:///system seems to work fine.

Greetings
Marc
