[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH] [Kimchi] Make libguestfs uses direct backend instead of libvirt
- there is an issue regarding libvirt socket permissions that make
libguestfs fails when trying to access an image. If libguestfs
access the same image directly, instead of using libvirt, it
works. http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-faq.1.html
