That'll cause a bit of an annoying namespace clash with Rich's existing
code for libvirtd. I think it'll be fine to keep it as libvirt_qemud
for now, because the user will never be directly exposed to this name,
it'll either autospawn (unprivileged users), or be started indirectly
with the init script.
Isn't the plan to combine the two daemons at some point?
