Bug Description

Binary package hint: virt-manager

When trying to boot an Ubuntu livecd in ~/Downloads with ~ having default 700 permissions, virt-manager asks whether it should add permissions to ~, and when user answers "yes", it proceeds to add --x ACL for root. Instead it should add --x ACL for libvirt-qemu.

Expected ACL:
$ chacl -l ~
/home/user [u::rwx,u:libvirt-qemu:--x,g::---,m::--x,o::---]

Observed ACL:
$ chacl -l ~
/home/user [u::rwx,u:root:--x,g::---,m::--x,o::---]

---------------
virt-manager (0.8.6-1ubuntu3) natty; urgency=low

  * debian/rules:
    - Set qemu user to libvirt-qemu so appropriate permissions get set.
      (LP: #722107)
    - Set Ubuntu as the preferred distro so we appear first in the list.
  * debian/patches/fork_before_using_gconf.patch: add bug tags
  * Correct bug number typo in previous changelog entry
