I wasn't unable to find a document that contains a formal policy on this, but my understanding is that foo-core is a stripped-down version of foo that only contains the very basic functionality, while foo-common is stuff needed by foo and doesn't do anything useful on its own. Based on this reading, libvirt-daemon-driver-storage-core and libvirt-daemon-common are the appropriate names for the respective packages. Anyone with actual RPM packaging experience, please call me out if I'm spouting nonsense :) -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
