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.

Eric Blake 448c93cf98 run: license as LGPL
It makes no sense to prohibit reuse of the wrapper in other LGPL
projects, since most of libvirt is designed to be LGPL.  Of
course, when using the wrapper to wrap a GPL program, the combined
result is still effectively GPL, but that shouldn't force us to
license the wrapper as GPL in isolation.

* run.in: Relicense to LGPLv2+.

         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.
