Should this be rolled into a duplicate of bug #522720 ?

Comment 2 Cole Robinson 2010-03-01 04:13:24 UTC
Paul, I haven't seen a dup recommendation from you that I haven't liked :) Please feel free to just dup the bugs, someone will undo if they disagree.

Closing as a dup of 522720

Reopening; please see comment #11 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=522720#c11 where I have explicitely been asked to open a new bug for libvirt.
Closing this as a dup now would be unproductive ;-)

Joachim, sorry about the confusion. I actually reassigned that original bug to libvirt with the intent of using it to track the issue I asked you to file in comment #11. I think it's better if we just stick to the original report where there is already a lot of info reported. Thanks for following up though.
