Unfortunately we can't use that. The license is GPL, while libvirt needs to be LGPL :-(
Ugh. That, again. Would you be seriously interested if it were LGPL?
Potentially, yes - hard to say for certain until we actually come to write the code of course :-)
Since I own most of the pieces (the gnulib "fsusage" module does depend on several others) this might be enough to make me change it.
Or as the copyright holder you could submit the neccessary patch for libvirt yourself when the time comes.... Lets remember this code for future
I've just switched the relevant gnulib modules to LGPL: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/10583 Let me know when/if you're interested in using it, and I'll be happy to lend a hand.
