This experimental feature allowed you (in theory) to connect to an existing instance of the libguestfs daemon. (Again, in theory) it allowed you to attach to running guests. This didn't work well in practice. If you want to do this, install qemu-guest-agent inside your guest instead. This also disables the --live options in guestfish and guestmount. (The option now prints an error). This was never supported in RHEL. The daemon tests relied on this connection method to perform tests on a bare daemon, so this removes those tests. They were not especially valuable. See-also: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/798980
This directory contains miscellaneous manual pages which don't fit elsewhere. Most libguestfs documentation is in manual pages. The source for those manual pages are POD files (*.pod), and they are normally located next to the source files they relate to (eg. guestfish documentation is in fish/guestfish.pod). All manual pages are available online at http://libguestfs.org/ The main API documentation is: http://libguestfs.org/guestfs.3.html
