releasing version 0.8.3-1ubuntu14.1~ppamaverick1

107. By Soren Hansen on 2010-10-07

* Forward-port to Maverick.
  - Re-enable macvtap.
* Add 9029-nwfilter-extend-nwfilter-reload-support.patch from upstream
  trunk and 9030-nwfilter-resolve-deadlock-between-VM-operations-and-
  filter-update.patch, an RFC patch from the libvirt mailing list.
  Together, they fix a deadlock in libvirt when attempting to update
  filters and creating domains at the same time.
* Nova Lucid PPA build.
* Merge with Ubuntu Maverick. Remainging changes:
  - Disable macvtap.
* Let Apparmor allow libvirtd to create PF_PACKET sockets. Several
  utility functions require it. Of particular interest, the NWFilter
  code uses it, so libvirt's firewalling functionality depends on
  this. (LP: #646706)
* debian/patch/9028-lp628055.patch: include sys/stat.h to fix compiler
  warning and stat() failure on 32bit architectures when calling stat() on
  large files. This can be dropped in 0.8.5. (LP: #628055)
* 9027-Make-newfilter-xml-transformations-endian-safe.patch
  NWFilter XML processing includes endian assumptions. Ensure
  that XML is parsed in an endian-safe manner. Thanks to
  Stefan Berger for developing the patch upstream. (LP: #643394)
* 9026-Rebuild-network-filter-for-UML-guests-on-updates.patch.
  NWFilter updates are supposed to be immediate. Add this support to
  the UML driver.
* debian/apparmor/usr.lib.virt-aa-helper: add read access to new 'loader'
  for eucalyptus (LP: #637544)
* Add 9025-Add-nwfilter-support-to-UML-driver.patch. Adds missing
  nwfilter support to UML.
* Nova Maverick PPA build.
* Nova Lucid PPA build.
* Disable macvtap.

When adding 9024-Explicitly-pass-uml_dir-argument-to-user-mode-linux.patch, I forgot to also apply it to the source tree.

releasing version 0.8.3-1ubuntu9

102. By Soren Hansen on 2010-08-31

Add 9024-Explicitly-pass-uml_dir-argument-to-user-mode-linux.patch
to stop user-mode-linux domains running under a libvirtd run by
upstart from mysteriously and silently crashing during boot.

101. By Soren Hansen on 2010-08-31

Update 9023-Support-virDomainAttachDevice-and-virDomainDetachDev.patch
based on a small last-minute change upstream.

100. By Marc Deslauriers on 2010-08-25

debian/patches/9009-autodetect-nc-params.patch: updated to fix
connecting to a remote server when using zsh or tcsh. (LP: #605172)

99. By Jamie Strandboge on 2010-08-24

* debian/patches/series: per Ubuntu Server team, run qemu/kvm as non-root
  and comment out 9008-run-as-root-by-default.patch. This has now received
  significant testing in Debian, adds a good security benefit for people
  who disable AppArmor and fixes the libvirt portion of LP: #619843. With
  this patch removed, libvirt will default to the Debian configure arguments
  and run qemu/kvm VMs as 'libvirt-qemu:kvm'.
* debian/README.Debian: adjusted for the above
