thanks.
will be there a newer release 0.5.2 (and may be a rawhide src.rpm too)
in the near future or it's better to patch 0.5.1?
The next update will be 0.6.0, hopefully sometime in the next week.
NB, if you're re-packaging libvirt for EPEL-5, be warned that none of
the previous upstream releases fully work with RHEL-5 Xen because they
are not aware of some significant backported features. In the 0.6.0
release you should make sure you run configure using --with-rhel5-api=yes
command line arg to fully support RHEL-5 Xen.
