Description:
After updating libvirt to 0.8.4-3 libvirtd fails to start. I've tested on two different x86_64 machines, but this may also affect i686.

Additional info:
libvirt 0.8.4-3 package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
#/etc/rc.d/libvirtd start
:: Starting libvirtd [BUSY]
/usr/sbin/libvirtd: error while loading shared libraries: libxenserver.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[FAIL]

Same problem here. Here the output from the console.

~]$ virt-manager
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py", line 26, in <module>
import libvirt
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 25, in <module>
raise lib_e
ImportError: libxenserver.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I guess libxenserver.so.1 comes from aur/xe-guest-utilities. Rebuilding libvirt without having anything xen-related installed fixes the problem for me.
