Hello folks,

After a couple of week and 84 commits later, we have another release of Virt Test, the test suite that aims to be a comprehensive resource for testing virtualization software on the Linux platform. The highlights of this release include:

1) A long standing problem of file descriptor leaks was completely resolved. Now virt-test closes properly all file descriptors it uses per test, making an old and serious problem where virt-test could hold enough file descriptors to make the system to run out of them.

2) Better house keeping of temporary files and processes created by the test suite. Now all tmp files are properly cleaned up, another step in making virt-test a useful tool for developers all round.

3) A ton of small bug fixes in qemu tests

4) Non interactive bootstrap for libvirt tests was added

5) Support to RHEL 6.5 guests was added

I'm really happy about this release, since it solves a very long standing problem and makes virt-test more polished and usable. I hope you also enjoy the fixes!
