libvirt-guests: Don't throw errors if libvirtd is not installed
When only client parts of libvirt are installed (i.e., no libvirtd daemon), libvirt-guests init script in its default configuration would throw seriously looking errors during host shutdown: Running guests on default URI: error: unable to connect to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock', libvirtd may need to be started: No such file or directory error: failed to connect to the hypervisor This patch changes the script to print rather harmless message in that situation: Running guests on default URI: libvirtd not installed; skipping this URI.
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.
