[Bug 667076] [NEW] Ubuntu's libvirt is compiled with VirtualBox driver disabled by default

[Adam Drew]

Public bug reported:

libvirt is compiled with VirtualBox support turned off by default in
Ubuntu. I grabbed the source with apt-get source libvirt and:

adam at adam-laptop:~/libvirt-0.8.3$ pwd
/home/adam/libvirt-0.8.3
adam at adam-laptop:~/libvirt-0.8.3$ grep vbox debian/rules 
	--without-vbox		 \

Because of this the only way to use libvirt and virsh with VirtualBox is
to roll your own libvirt. Libvirt has had support for VirtualBox for a
long time. It would probably good to remove --without-vbox from the
package configuration.
