[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#797203: virtinst: missing code to allow virt-install to use openvswitch as a bridge

[xarlos]

Package: virtinst
Version: 1:1.0.1-5
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I was attempting to install a KVM image using virt-install and was prompted
"Operation not supported"
I spoke to danpb #virt (oftc.net) and he had a look, found missing code, and
suggested a patch.

See: https://www.redhat.com/archives/virt-tools-list/2015-August/msg00056.html

His patch suggestion has been tested by me, and works a treat.

Debian Jessie, 8.1

Thanks,
Xarlos
