Re: [PATCH RFC 0/5] storage: Drop the sheepdog storage driver backend

The sheepdog project is abandoned, with last commit in 2018. QEMU already removed the storage backend in qemu-6.1 This series removes the libvirt storage driver backend.

This series is RFC as of: 1/5: I'm not 100% sure whether 'Obsoletes:' is the correct way to deprecate a subpackage in Fedora, but it certainly does the correct thing. 4/5: I personally don't mind that the build option will be kept to prevent breakage of builds, but I can see the value in dropping it and anyone building libvirt having to knowingly acknowledge that they don't need sheepdog any more. (This patch intentionally omits the S-o-b line as the commit message will need to be rewritten if it's going to be pushed) This series does _not_ remove the ability to use qemu-6.0 and older with sheepdog as the qemu driver bits are left untouched.
