Marko confirmed on IRC that after setting forced_restart=false the libvirt PMDA Install proceeds successfully. Probably high time we made that the default, as we've been planning to for ages - I'll get that in for the next release.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Install Fedora 24 Server 2. Update, put SELinux to Permissive 3. Install PCP, enable pmcd/pmlogger/pmie 4. Install pcp-pmda-libvirt from updates-testing 5. Continue as in comment#0
This bug can no longer happen since the forced_restart=true was removed from the Install script (i.e. since pcp-3.11.6).
