Mark McLoughlin 1acef95a81 libvirt-devel should only require libvirt-client 
There's a long known issue where if you install libvirt in a guest,
the default virtual network will conflict with the default virtual
network in the host.

That's one of the reasons we have the libvirt-client RPM - it allows
you to install the client library without having the host side
installed.

Rich Jones points out that if you install libvirt-devel in a guest,
then you get libvirtd installed and the network conflict:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/531200

libvirt-devel should only require libvirt-client - e.g. nothing in
the devel package pertains to anything in the libvirt RPM. The Fedora
packaging guidelines say:

  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Devel_Packages

  Devel packages must require the base package using a fully versioned
  dependency ...

But for all intents and purposes, libvirt-client is our base RPM.

* libvirt.spec.in: make libvirt-devel require libvirt-client

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
