 virt-manager-0.8.3-2.fc13 fixes several bugs, but the most important
 change is a
 an enhancement to ask packagekit about currently installed hypervisors (bz
 513494)

 The first start experience with virt-manager is pretty rough, since we
 don't have
 a hard dependency on either kvm or libvirtd, which are both required for
 common
 desktop virt usage. virt-manager now asks packagekit about these packages
 on first
 run, and offers the user an option to install them. This greatly improves
 the first
 run virt-manager experience for new users.

 The backport was bigger then expected, but the code has a strong emphasis
 on being
 self contained, so if it breaks the worst that should happen is we
 fallback to the
 previous sub-optimal behavior.
