Product     : Fedora Core 6
Name        : virt-manager
Version     : 0.2.6
Release     : 1.fc6
Summary     : Virtual Machine Manager
Description :
Virtual Machine Manager provides a graphical tool for administering
virtual machines such as Xen. It uses libvirt as the backend management
API.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Updated to new 0.2.6 release:

The release focus has been on major bug fixing. This is also
the first release in which (partial) translations are
available for the UI in approximately 20 languages - thanks
to the Fedora i18n team for excellant progress on this. It
is now possible to control the virt-manager UI with command
line arguments as well as the DBus API & it DBus activation
is no longer used by default which fixes interaction with
GNOME keyring & AT-SPI accesibility. Numerous UI issues were
fixed / clarified, particularly in the graphical console and
new VM creation wizard.
