Possibly for post 1.40. Rich.

The existing mechanism was clunky, slow and used ~ 10 MB of local disk. Rich.

We've been carrying this exact patch in RHEL 7 for several years. It reverts the change made in 2014 where we switched to using the virbr0 bridge for libguestfs networking instead of SLIRP. We thought SLIRP was going to become unsupported in qemu, but recently there have been more encouraging signs since it looks like SLIRP will be spun off as a separate project, running as a modular process

Let's actually compile and test the patch this time, rather than trusting the RHEL 7.6 patch to apply directly to head ... Rich.

v3: - Various changes to dhclient/dhcpcd as discussed on the mailing list.

v2: - Make virbr0 configurable. - Fix the tests.

You'll have to either reinstall the OS from scratch, or very carefully try to work out what the 'make install' command installed and remove it by hand.

I download libguestfs from github and fetch to the *origin master*. I tried to build libguestfs in my own linux distro and I followd the http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-building.1.html#using-a-prebuilt-binary-appliance to replace with supermin I download the appliance-1.30.1.tar.xz and appliance-1.30.1.tar.xz.sig and extract the tarball to /home/user/appliance and export
