This version is fine, but as explained elsewhere I think it would be
better to have
Requires: libvirt-daemon-common = %{version}-%{release}
Requires: libvirt-daemon-log = %{version}-%{release}
Recommends: libvirt-daemon-proxy = %{version}-%{release}
and no dependency at all on the locking part.
Rationale:
* virtproxyd being present allows clients that are older than ~2
years to connect, so it should be there by default while still
making it possible for the admin to opt out, which can be done by
simply uninstalling the corresponding package;
* storage locking is not the default behavior and needs to be
turned on explicitly, so it's not a big deal if part of the setup
involves installing a couple extra packages in addition to
editing some configuration files, and everyone else gets a leaner
installation.
Thoughts?
