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.

Yufang Zhang daef7c9e9c build: move file deleting action from %files list to %install
When building libvirt rpms on rhel5, I got the following error:

    File must begin with "/": rm
    File must begin with "/": -f
    File must begin with "/": $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/etc/sysctl.d/libvirtd
    Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
   /etc/sysctl.d/libvirtd

It is triggerd by the %files list of libvirt daemon:

    %if 0%{?fedora} >= 14 || 0%{?rhel} >= 6
    %config(noreplace) %{_prefix}/lib/sysctl.d/libvirtd.conf
    %else
    rm -f $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_prefix}/lib/sysctl.d/libvirtd.conf
    %endif

After checking document of rpm spec file, I think it would be better
to move the file deleting line from %files list to %install script.

Bug introduced in commit a1fd56c.

         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.
