[el5_ga_base] python-virtinst-0.99.0-2.el5.noarch

virtinst is a module to help in starting installations of Fedora/Red
Hat Enterprise Linux related distributions inside of virtual machines.  It
supports both paravirt guests (for which only FC and RHEL guests are
currently supported) as well as fully virtualized guests.  It uses
libvirt (http://www.libvirt.org) for starting things.

Also contained is a simple script virt-install which uses
virtinst in a command line mode.
