This makes it simpler to include the necessary system security driver libraries for a particular system. For this patch, several existing conditional sections from the Makfile were replaced; I'll later be adding SECDRIVER_LIBS to libvirt_util_la_LIBADD, because vircommand.c will be calling a function from $securitylib.
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.
