Thanks for the patch! There's several compiler warnings after this though,
which by default are errors for libvirt. They are of the form: error: unused
variable 'err' [-Werror=unused-variable] . I won't tell you where :) Check the
patch for any places that the 'virErrorPtr err' definition wasn't deleted, and
if there's no other uses in the function, delete the definition.

Make sure you aren't passing --disable-werror to ./configure (--enable-werror
is the default)

Also make sure to run 'make syntax-check', it will flag a couple style issues
you need to fix.

This and (and the other places like it) changes the error message slightly,
but it's a good change. Just wanted to point it out

You dropped _() which ensures the string is translated. And you need a
separator between virGetLastErrorMessage() and the root string:

_("Unknown failure in libvirt_lxc startup: %s\n")

Similarly this dropped the _() usage, please re-add it

This one is a bit unclear but I'd suggest

_("%s: failure with %s: %s"), program_name, path, virGetLastErrorMessage()

Hmm this case is kind of legitimate. The pattern is a bit weird though, maybe
it makes more sense to clean up the code above it. I suggest dropping this
change from the patch since it may deserve a bit more work.

Thanks,
