Commit 71d1256 tried to fix a problem where rebasing an old branch on top of newer libvirt.git resulted in automake failing because of a missing AUTHORS file. However, while the fix worked for an incremental 'make', it did not work for someone that directly reran './autogen.sh'. Reported by Laine Stump. * autogen.sh (autoreconf): Check for same conditions as cfg.mk. * cfg.mk (_update_required): Add comments. (cherry picked from commit 55dc872bd85e0756a13fc24693c4eed31d0c202f)
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.
