Package: libsys-virt-perl Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
right now libsys-virt-perl declares a hard dependency on libvirt-bin which is rather silly since libvirt supports accessing remote daemons via the network so why should this library depend on the deamon anyways? This is not only an inconvinience but could also result in security issues for users unknowingly installing an autostarting daemon even though they just tried to install libguestfs-tools for example (which is the problem I ran into). So I propose at least downgrading the dependency on libvirt-bin to a Recomends so users can choose not to install the daemon.
