Re: [libvirt] commandtest fails when executed with preloaded libraries

In Gentoo we sandbox software installation with a software called

This method seems to break commandtest because the environment now has a
LD_PRELOAD variable in it, which is not accounted for in the
pre-generated log files.
Any idea how I should go about to solve this beside adding LD_PRELOAD to
the log files themselves for Gentoo?
We should add
unsetenv(LD_PRELOAD)
unsetenv(LD_LIBRARY_PATH)
to commandtest.c, because although we want these env variables
in normal usage of the virCommandPtr APIs, they're not desirable
in this test case. Since commandtesthelper doesn't do anything
to the system beyond creating a logfile, I imagine it'd work
fine without gentoo's LD_PRELOAD
