With the recent changes to the linking defaults in Fedora 13 (namely enabling --no-add-needed behaviour by default), we have to pass the dlopen()-providing libraries directly at the link of the module; use the same AC_SEARCH_LIBS function as used before to look for it and add it to the Makefile.
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.
