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.

Cole Robinson a0a1f39adf util: Add virGettextInitialize, convert the code
Take setlocale/gettext error handling pattern from tools/virsh-*
and use it for all standalone binaries via a new shared
virGettextInitialize routine. The virsh* pattern differed slightly
from other callers. All users now consistently:

* Ignore setlocale errors. virsh has done this forever, presumably for
  good reason. This has been partially responsible for some bug reports:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1026514
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1016158

* Report the failed function name
* Report strerror

         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.
