python-virtinst enhancement and bug fix update

An updated python-virtinst package that fixes several bugs and adds various
enhancements is now available.

The python-virtinst package contains virtinst, a module to help start
installations of Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Fedora inside a virtual
machine. It supports para-virtualized and fully-virtualized guests. As
well, the python-virtinst package contains a script, virt-install, which
uses virtinst in a command line mode.

This updated package provides the following enhancements:

* python-virtinst has been upgraded to a newer version, (0.300.2).

* the virt-install command now provides a manual page.

* virt-install is now able to install Fedora 8 guests.

* CPU pinning is now supported when new guests are created with the
'--cpuset' option.

* virt-install now gives a warning if creating a guest would overwrite an
existing storage file.

* improved error messages when virt-install is not able to install a
virtualized guest via a URL.

* support for the --noreboot option has been added to virt-install.

* virt-install is now enabled to log messages.

In addition, this updated python-virtinst package provides fixes for the
following bugs:

* libvirt would emit extraneous error messages when running virt-install.

* virt-install was unable to create Xen instances of Fedora rawhide.

* special characters were unescaped in file names represented in XML,
resulting in a failure to create guests.

* problems with character-escaping with XML.

* several formerly-ambiguous error messages have been clarified.

* virt-install is now able to install virtual machines from Satellite servers.

* a VirtualDisk object is now built using the CD-ROM path passed to
virt-install in order to reuse already-present validation.

* python-virtinst now checks and warns the user if the user attempts
installation to regular files already used by another domain.

* a bug which caused the rejection of hyphenated virtual machine names has
been fixed.

Users are advised to upgrade to this updated python-virtinst package, which
resolves these issues and adds these enhancements.

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
