[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH] On Ubuntu, current libvirt library requires <os><type arch='' specification to avoid a failure in virDomainDefineXML() and messages like - libvirtError: internal error: no supported architecture for os type 'hvm' on x86_64 arch - libvirtError: XML error: No PCI buses available on ppc64el arch
