Andrea,
there is another "side effect" of the Requires directive.
libvirt-guests gets automatically started when libvirt is updated to
v2.3.0. This has some rather nasty implications for the end users.
Mh, I don't see why that would happen.
The Requires relationship goes in the opposite direction,
so if libvirt-guests was not running before the upgrade
there should be no reason for it to be started, whether
that relationship is there or not.
I'll try to reproduce this on my machine and get back to
you in a while.
I tried upgrading from 2.2.0 to 2.3.0 a bunch of times, but
I haven't been able to reproduce the failure you're
reporting: libvirt-guests is never started automatically.
Can you provide more information? What distribution are
you using? Are you building from source, or using your
distribution's packages? Are you sure libvirt-guests was
not running even before upgrade?

I used fc20 and built the libvirt rpms from source. libvirt-guests was
not running when updating from 2.2.0 to libvirt 2.3.0. I switched
systems and retried on fc23 after rebuilding libvirt 2.2.0 and 2.3.0
from source. On this system I cannot reproduce the behaviour.
You are correct that the behaviour I got does not match with the
requires directive. So my guess is that my old fc20 might still have
some systemd problem which has been fixed in newer fc versions.
