Bug#725968: pu: package libvirt/0.9.12.2-1

Certainly not for the next point release, due this weekend, and frozen
past weekend.

For the record, we tend to prefer having debdiff (or at least debian
changelogs) posted to the BTS. Right now I have absolutely no idea which
bugs you're trying to get fixed, and whether fixes landed in testing or
unstable.

But seriously, a 15MB diff is nowhere reviewable. Even if most of it is
automake bootstrap and patches moving around.

Other team members' mileage may vary…
