** Description changed: - Periodically the autostart symlink for libvirt-bin's default network is - recreated. This is not expected or desired behavior. I've manually - removed the symlink repeatedly as I've created my own network - definitions that I'd prefer were started instead. + =================================================== + SRU Justification: + 1. Impact: if admins disable the example default network, then each libvirt upgrade re-enables it + 2. Development fix: use a patch in debian to not install the default network auto-run symlink, and tweak postinst to create it (only) on a first install. + 3. Stable fix: same as development fix + 4. Test case: + a. sudo apt-get install libvirt-bin + b. sudo rm /etc/libvirt/qemu/network/defaults/autostart.xml + c. sudo apt-get install --reinstall libvirt-bin + d. ls -l /etc/libvirt/qemu/network/defaults/autostart.xml + After reinstall, autostart should not exist. + 5. Regression Potential: a mistake in the postinst script could cause installations and upgrades to fail. + =================================================== + Periodically the autostart symlink for libvirt-bin's default network is recreated. This is not expected or desired behavior. I've manually removed the symlink repeatedly as I've created my own network definitions that I'd prefer were started instead.
