This shows a place where the example program could use the libvirt
error information - it should have received error message to the
effect of
'Cannot find QEMU binary /usr/bin/qemu'
when qemudExtractVersion failed to find the binary it wanted
I should illustrate getting the error messages in the example. I'll put
it in. Did you deliberately break your system to provoke the failure?
I had to rename /usr/bin/qemu to get it.
