Description Dennis Schridde 2010-06-07 09:35:23 UTC
Description of problem:
If the "tun" module is not loaded into the kernel, this can lead to weird issues, e.g. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=322107
Therefore libvirt should first run a sanity check for "tun" capability/module, before it tries to actually use it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
