[libvirt] [PATCH] docs: correct improper information about domain states in virsh manpage

Commit 24d4a0a1f removed the non-existent "dying" state from the list of possible domain states given in the virsh manpage, but didn't correct the count of states from 8 down to 7. This patch fixes that mismatch, while wording the sentence in a more readable/truthful manner. --- tools/virsh.pod | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/virsh.pod b/tools/virsh.pod index aee9646..611ea88 100644 --- a/tools/virsh.pod +++ b/tools/virsh.pod @@ -418,8 +418,9 @@ State is the run state (see below).

Why don't we get rid of the number altogether while we're at it, so that we don't risk the sentence being off sync with the list ever again? :) Whether or not you decide to drop the number: Reviewed-by: Andrea Bolognani <abologna@redhat.com> -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
