This is the update of libvirt to the latest version 2.1.
The most important change from a packager view is the new virtlogd
daemon.
This daemon handles the qemu output and wrote it to log files.
The require some changes:
- A new init script to start, stop restart the daemon called virtlogd.
The daemon is restart with SIGUSR1 (this is important because the daemon
keeps all pipelines etc. open).
This introduces a problem with the uninstall.sh install.sh script.
It is not possible to stop the daemon while virtual machines are
running, so the script update.sh execute from now not uninstall.sh and
install.sh instead it contains all steps from uninstall.sh install.sh
expect the start / stop routine for virtlogd. The daemon is just
restarted after the update, which makes sure that all changes take
effect.
- new symlinks in the uninstall.sh and install.sh script and some root
file changes because of the new virtlogd init script.
- the archive format changes from tar.gz to tar.xz

This package adds support for the use redirection of spice.
It is now possible to attach USB devices of the host where the spice
client run to the virtual machine.
The binary is not needed for this functionality and that's why they is
not shipped with the package
This feature is also enabled in qemu.

The directory /etc/libvirt is backed up on uninstallation and is
restored on installation.
Alle Files in /var are commented in the rootfile so they are not
removed on uninstallation.
Because of the fact that the directories are not shipped with the
package they were created at installation time.
The permissions of 3 directories are changed because the qemu user is
nobody and the qemu group is kvm, so the permissions must be nobody:kvm

The correct case for "kilobit" is "kilobit", not "kiloBit".
And the same applies for Mbit, Gbit etc.
Reference is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilobit
This commit changes the texts used in the web UI, so
that it correctly displays as "bit", "kbit", "Mbit" etc.
This fixes bugzilla item 10918.

This patch update qemu to version 2.6
For changelogs see:
http://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.5http://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.6
Qemu try to built with bluez, but before version 2.6 bluez was not used
by qemu on IPFire, so I think it is better to disable bluez because
nobody needs it before version 2.6 and our bluez is not the latest
version so I think this will cause more problems than benefits.
