Thank you, thank you.
I have been having some problems getting F18-beta installed and did
not need additional problems trying to get 1.0.0 with my patches up.
Mmmm. This reminds me of the issue under F17 with libnl3.
Actually much less of a headache - in the case of libnl3, you really
*did* need to build with libnl of some sort enabled. Also, everything
was in place for the switch beforehand, unlike for Xen 4.2. The wrench
in the gears was that a freeze was put in place on the F18 branch right
after I had pushed the netcf update, but before the libvirt Fedora
maintainer could push a libvirt update - it was stuck in limbo for a
couple weeks and we suffered in the meantime.
