Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.

The automake manual recommends against the use of disabling maintainer mode by default: https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#maintainer_002dmode because when it is disabled, the user gets no indication if they touch a file that would normally require a rebuild. Automake 1.11 changed things so that AM_MAINTAINER_MODE([enable]) will set the mode to enabled by default; but RHEL 5 still uses automake 1.9, where AM_MAINTAINER_MODE did not recognize an argument, and therefore disables maintainer mode by default. Having the default be different according to which version of automake built the project is annoying, and I _have_ been bitten on RHEL 5 rebuilds where the default disabled mode led to silently incorrect builds. The automake manual admits that being able to disable maintainer mode still makes sense for projects that still store generated files from the autotools in version control; but we have dropped that for several years now. As such, it's finally time to just ditch the whole idea of maintainer mode, and unconditionally rebuild autotools files if a dependency changes, without offering a configure option to disable that mode. * configure.ac (AM_MAINTAINER_MODE): Drop.

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.
