I forgot to make the rc2 release on tuesday, but looking at the git state it was looking like the problem reported on rc1 had been fixed, so I decided to go ahead and roll the release as scheduled today. It is tagged in git and the tarball is available as usual at: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ along with rpms.
