We've been intentionally trying to keep the package backportable. This seems to confirm that we haven't yet messed that up :) Note that this might change soon as the time64 and /usr-merge transitions are deemed "very much not backportable in a sane way"[1]. > > Therefore, I'd like to ask: does the libvirt team (guido?) would like to > > upload a backported version of libvirt and python-libvirt to Bookworm?

The summer months are tricky for me, and all the little precious time I can spare for Debian work is entirely allocated to making a fairly big restructuring happen. Getting out of the way of the /usr-merge transition is next on the list. If you prepared a backport I'd be quite happy to take a look though.
