Title:
  libvirt for Xenial failing to build due to gnutls SHA1 restriction

Status in libvirt package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in libvirt source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  * Since version 3.4.10-4ubuntu1.6 on Xenial, gnutls considers SHA1
  certificates to be insecure - this affects libvirt tests
  "virnettlscontexttest" and "virnettlssessiontest", preventing the
  correct build of the package.

  * The fix is available upstream since libvirt v3.7.0, as commit
  c666661bbc ("Fix TLS test suites with gnutls 3.6.0") [
  libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commit;h=c666661b ], which uses
  SHA256 for the certificates generated on tests.

  [Test Case]

  * Basic testing consists is spin-up a PPA builder and try to build
  libvirt - it'll fail in amd64 and i386 architectures. With the
  proposed patch, it succeeds. Both failure and success buildlogs are
  attached in the LP.

  [Regression Potential]

  * The regression potential in this case is minimal, since it only
  affects testing. Also, this patch is present in all subsequent
  releases and is hereby introduced only in Xenial after the gnutls
  change (from version 3.6) was backported to Xenial as well.
