I just sent a patch[0] out to the libvirt mailinglist.
I also pushed to code to my Github account[1] for those who want to test it.
Clone the repo and run:
$ ant deb
That's all.

I've been doing that today. I can now generate a libvirt-java debian package
which should work on Debian and Ubuntu. I'll test it further and sent
patches to libvirt so they can add it to the libvirt-java repo.
We we could provide a deb, libvirt already provides an RPM and let the
cloud-agent depend on it?
That way we'll never ship the JAR inside the cloud-agent package and we can
simply but it online.
For Debian/Ubuntu I'm still voting for a APT repository where people can
download/install the CloudStack packages from. When they install
'cloud-agent' they will simply also download libvirt-java from that same
repository.
I can than try to get the Deb into Debian and Ubuntu and David, you might
get it into Fedora?
Would this work?

So a couple of things:
* CloudStack (in its current form) won't build without libvirt-java.
This means either:
a. CloudStack declares libvirt-java to be a system requirement
b. We break out KVM support and make it an optional/non-default part
of the build
Both of the above result in cloud-libvirt.jar being removed from the repo.
Take a look at:

well versed in this particular page over the next month or so)
