Comment 1 for bug 1319717

libvirt-bin will pull in libvirtd, which will configure a virbr0, etc. I'm not sure we want to do that by default. I presume this is the original rationale for Suggests rather than Recommends or Depends.

I can see that libvirt might be installed on a different machine though, so perhaps we want virsh available but not libvirtd installed and configured.

Raphaël, does this sound reasonable and is this what you need? If so, I guess we'll need to split libvirt-bin in order to make any progress here.
