libvirt-bin will pull in libvirtd, which will configure a virbr0, etc. I'm not sure we want to do that by default. I presume this is the original rationale for Suggests rather than Recommends or Depends.
I can see that libvirt might be installed on a different machine though, so perhaps we want virsh available but not libvirtd installed and configured. Raphaël, does this sound reasonable and is this what you need? If so, I guess we'll need to split libvirt-bin in order to make any progress here. ** Changed in: maas (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: maas (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319717 Title: virsh support requires an extra package to be installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/maas/+bug/1319717/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
