** Description changed: The documentation in /usr/share/doc/libvirt-bin/README.Debian.gz talks about access control and refers to a group called "libvirt". Apparently, this group is actually called "libvirtd" on Ubuntu. Quote: > Note that *every* user on the system has access to xend then. Better use > libvirtd to access xen with unprivileged users and add the users to the > "libvirt" group (see "Access Control" below). > Access Control > ============== > Access to the libvirt socket is controlled by membership in the "libvirt" group. > If you want to manage VMs as non root you need to add a user to that group. I'm using Ubuntu 12.10, libvirt-bin version 0.9.13-0ubuntu12.1. + + ==================================== + SRU Justification: + 1. Impact: README.Debian tells admins to place users who want to use libvirt into the wrong group. + 2. Development fix: update documentation + 3. Stable fix: same as development fix + 4. Test case: look at /usr/share/doc/libvirt-bin/README.Debian.gz and look for + "libvirtd" group + in stead of + "libvirt" group" + 5. Regression potential: this is only a documentation update. + ====================================
