And everywhere "virt-" has been added as an alias for "virt", so i just followed this policy. What these "virt-" machines really do, depends on their authors. I simply don't know.
OK, that's very reasonable then. If the maintainer adds some 'virt-' type, they can also add the proper checks for it.

Personally, i don't have much time to work on the test suite, to tell the truth...

If you want to see it, you can omit the condition and run "make check", the first qemu test will crash upon NULL dereference in virQEMUCapsCacheLookup().> and what part of the below is the hack?The hack is "if (driver->qemuCapsCache)" check. Our test suite does not create the cache, instead it builds "caps" object directly and passes around the pointer to all functions which take it. It is actually not really difficult to fix this. The test suite should mock up qemuCapsCache too.
The qemuxml2argvtest mocks the capability cache, so it must be qemuxml2xmltest. And that one should do *nothing* with any capabilities. Merely because whatever it does must work without any qemu installed in the system. Moreover the test might produce different results for different QEMU binaries installed in the system, which is even worse.
