Heh, the original SLES 11 had 0.4.6. > RHEL 6.0 → 0.8.1 > Ubuntu 12.04 → 0.9.2 > > RHEL 6.8 → 0.10.2 > Ubuntu 12.04.5 → 0.9.8 > SLES 11 SP4 → 1.2.5 > > One thing I'm not clear about is whether or not SUSE, Red > Hat and Canonical will support old minor releases or just > the latest one. For SLES 11, active maintenance is only on the latest one (1.2.5). SUSE provides long-term support for libvirt 1.0.5 in SLES 11 SP3, but bug reports are rare these days. SUSE also provides long-term support for SLES 10 SP4 (libvirt 0.3.3), but I haven't seen a bug report in years on that one! I'd be shocked if anyone was using SLES10 SP4 as a virtualization host :-).
