* Do not use vfb sections in HVM graphics definitions (side-
  effect will create a vkbd device as well which causes error
  messages in the HVM guest). (LP: #973529)

* Use domain/status to check for inactive domains in the xend sub-
  driver. (LP: #929626)
* Prevent the hypervisor sub-driver from logging an internal error
  just because it cannot find a certain domain when looking for
  the number of vcpus. (LP: #963006)

203. By Serge Hallyn on 2012-03-13

* re-enable numa (undo delta against debian) (LP: #614322):
  - debian/control: remove from dependencies

202. By Serge Hallyn on 2012-03-12

ubuntu/skip-labelling-network-disks.patch: don't try to label network
drives with apparmor. It fails. (LP: #949428)

[ Stefan Bader ]
Never use type=ioemu for NIC definitions. It is not needed
and actually breaks the paravirt interface which always gets
created in parallel.

200. By Serge Hallyn on 2012-03-02

[ Serge Hallyn ]
* run dnsmasq as a new libvirt-dnsmasq user (LP: #938255)
  - ubuntu/dnsmasq-as-priv-user: add '-u libvirt-dnsmasq' to dnsmasq args
  - debian/libvirt-bin.postinst: create libvirt-dnsmasq user
  - tests/networkxml2argvdata/*.argv: update expected dnsmasq command lines
    to include '-u libvirt-dnsmasq'.

[ Chuck Short ]
* cherry-pick rewrite-lxc-controller-eof-handling-yet-again (commit
  9130396214975ba2251082f943c9717281039050) from upstream.

199. By Serge Hallyn on 2012-02-15

debian/control: add libgcrypt11-dev to build-depends (LP: #932889)

198. By Serge Hallyn on 2012-02-08

[ Stefan Bader ]
* xen_hypervisor: libvirtd can be started before xenfs has been loaded
  as a module. A missing privcmd file is not necessarily a permanent
  error. (LP: #922486)

[ Serge Hallyn ]
* debian/libvirt-bin.upstart: start on just 'runlevel [2345]'
