Subject: connectauth: Drop sanity checking for libvirtd
From: Cole Robinson crobinso@redhat.com Tue Sep 12 13:18:42 2023 -0400

Nowadays with libvirt split daemons, libvirtd isn't required to
be installed for a first run local connection to succeed, so we
are needlessly blocking the app from 'just working' in many cases.
Especially considering that many distros often have libvirt running
out of the box due to gnome-boxes pulling it in.
Drop the daemon checking entirely.
