This patch implements the core driver and provides
- management functionality for managing the filter XMLs
- compiling the internal filter representation into ebtables rules
- applying ebtables rules on a network (tap,macvtap) interface
- tearing down ebtables rules that were applied on behalf of an
interface
- updating of filters while VMs are running and causing the firewalls to
be rebuilt
- other bits and pieces

* po/*po*: updated spanish and russian localisations, rebuilt
With the recent changes to the linking defaults in Fedora 13 (namely
enabling --no-add-needed behaviour by default), we have to pass the
dlopen()-providing libraries directly at the link of the module; use the
same AC_SEARCH_LIBS function as used before to look for it and add it to
the Makefile.
since we're using gettext-0.14.1, which uses that now-obsolete
automake symbol. Otherwise, make distcheck would fails like this:
make[2]: Entering directory `/t/libvirt-0.7.6/_build/po'
/bin/sh @MKINSTALLDIRS@ /t/libvirt-0.7.6/_inst/share
/bin/sh: @MKINSTALLDIRS@: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [install-data-yes] Error 127
* configure.ac (MKINSTALLDIRS): Define.
For reference, we're currently hamstrung by our desire
to support RHEL5, which still uses gettext-0.14:

Create the filesystem on the partition used by the pool
* configure.ac: check for mkfs availability
* libvirt.spec.in: add extra require on util-linux for mkfs
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c: run mkfs with the expected
fs type when creating a filesystem pool
This patch adds build support for libvirt checking for certain contents
of /usr/include/linux/if_link.h to see whether macvtap support is
compilable on that system. One can disable macvtap support in libvirt
via --without-macvtap passed to configure.
* configure.ac src/Makefile.am: new build support
* src/libvirt_macvtap.syms: list of exported symbols
* src/util/macvtap.c: empty module to not break compilation
