In addition to the libvirtd daemon this package also contains the virtlogd,
virtlockd and virtproxyd daemons, plus a number of helpers, configuration
files and other bits necessary to create and admin a virtualization host.
New installations should not use this package, instead opting for one of
the modular daemon deployment options.
The virt-admin tool, also included in this package, is used for
administrative operations on any libvirt daemons. Most usefully it allows
for logging filters and outputs to be reconfigured on a running daemon
without a restart.
