** Description changed:

  Libvirt should NOT be modifying ownership of my ISO images when mounting
  them to install a KVM instance. This causes issues later when I use
  zsync to update the images from the latest bits at cdimages.u.c.  More
  importantly, my files should not arbitrarily be stolen from me when
  they're used BY ME.  Period.
  
  -rw------- 1 bladernr     bladernr   813694976 Apr 11 08:14

  -rw------- 1 libvirt-qemu kvm        754974720 Jul 17 07:09 
bionic-server-amd64.iso
  
  One of these I used to install a KVM instance.  Now when I run my zsync
  scripts to update the ISOs, zsync cannot update bionic-server-amd64.iso
  because I no longer own MY OWN FILE.
  
  I'm filing this because the other bug I found for this is nearly 10
  years old and apparently still not fixed.
  
  And I don't agree that the workaround of making libvert use root/root as
  the user/group is appropriate either.
  
  put simply, when I use my own ISO files to deploy my own KVM instances
  as my own user, my files should NOT be taken away from me and given to a
- system user account, period.
+ system user account without me expressly opting into that behaviour.
