I'm on the last F8 update (0.4.4) and my problem[1] I would love to see fixed is the
desynchronization that occurs between libvirtd and xend if I shutdown a guest. Until xend
is restarted, libvirt utils can't find the domU.

There were a lot of fixes listed[2] for 0.4.5. I don't know if they fix this problem,
but some of them sound like they would come close in the code.

Okay, so I build the package for F-8 based on the spec file for F-9
You can get it here
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=852116
Since this is really for testing ATM I disabled the automatic push to
stable based on karma as I'm still afraid of the risk:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libvirt-0.4.6-1.fc8
Give it a try, and please comment back on the package,
thanks,
Daniel
