Subject: [PATCH] RHEL: Remove 
1b87cf
1b87cf
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2045879
1b87cf
1b87cf
This is to accommodate for RHEL 8 downstream glib being fixed with a backport in
1b87cf
version 2.56.4-12 (Bug 1948988).  Another reason for that is that our workaround
1b87cf
does not play nice with a fixed glib, leading to libvirt not properly
1b87cf
dereferencing the monitor socket, eventually leading to EMFILE: Too many open
1b87cf
files.
