Subject: [PATCH] Handle kernels with no ipv6 support
If the ipv6 kernel module is not loaded, then we get this when starting
a virtual network:
libvir: Network Config error :
cannot enable /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/virbr0/disable_ipv6:
No such file or directory
If disable_ipv6 is not present, we should just merrily continue on our
way.
* src/network_driver.c: make networkDisableIPV6() not fail if the kernel
has no ipv6 support
(cherry picked from commit f5a8f969dd92ec2744e1eec5d35288d5fbcded22)
Fedora-patch: libvirt-0.7.0-handle-kernels-with-no-ipv6-support.patch
