However we can't have libvirt-java in the repo.
System requirement doesn't work, as we will use the latest libvirt-java which haven't released yet, which means most likely all the distributions will not have the latest release. Maybe we can add it as a system requirement, then in the installation guide, tells user to download and install the latest libvirt-java from somewhere?
