libvirt (0.4.0-2ubuntu8) hardy; urgency=low

  * disk-bus.patch:
    - Add bus attribute to disk/target tags. Allows you to create virtio disks.
      (LP: #213991)
  * nic-model.patch:
    - Add <model type='foo'/> support to network interfaces. (LP: #213991)
 * graceful_shutdown.patch:
    - Rather than pulling the power from virtual machines, send an ACPI power
      button event and let the OS handle it.
  * better_default_uri_virsh.patch:
    - Updated patch: Output connection URI to stderr instead of stdout to avoid
      breaking scripts that use virsh.
