[Bug 665531] Re: libvirt no longer supports format=host_device

[ariel]

Uhm... this "fix" for Lucid (and therefore probably the  older one in
0.7.5-5ubuntu27.5)  did really break a working system!!

We had a running system with Opennebula/KVM/libvirt and after last upgrade 
     libvirt   0.7.5-5ubuntu27.3   ---->   0.7.5-5ubuntu27.7
creating virtual machines didn't work anymore for qcow2 images...

I don't discuss if  "format=host_device" should be supported or not, but
in any case the changes affecting it were IMHO unnecessary in a stable
release like Lucid!!   I confidently perform updates on a stable release
expecting the system to keep working, we were forced to downgrade
libvirt to the lucid/release version to get it working again.

With Debian that would not happen ;-)
