[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#911923: Please suspend the domains on shutdown

[Laurent Bigonville]

Package: libvirt-daemon-system
Version: 4.7.0-1+b1
Severity: normal
File: /etc/default/libvirt-guests

Hi,

Currently, libvirt in debian is (trying) to shutdown the domains when
the host is shutdown.

This is different from upstream behaviour, any reasons that has been
changed?

I'm asking because some OS (windows) are not shutting down when the
shutdown signal is sent if there is a locked user session.

On desktop machine where people are virtualizing windows, this is a
problem because the shutdown will need to wait the timeout of the
libvirt-guests script.

On the side note, upstream also resume the domains on boot, but that
might be a bit too much to enabled that by default.

Kind regards,

Laurent Bigonville
