The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

This update fixes the following issues with libvirt :

- bnc#875694: Fix migration with QEMU 1.6. QEMU 1.6.0 introduced new migration status: setup. Libvirt does not expect such string in QMP and refuses to migrate with error 'unexpected migration status in setup'

- Patch to prevent expansion of entities when parsing XML files. This vulnerability allowed malicious users to read arbitrary files or cause a denial of service (CVE-2014-0179).
