We never advertised HTTP downloads, we only had an HTTPS URL
incorrectly labeled as "HTTP". So s/or HTTP // in the subject.

s/and/are/

Also, is that so? We should fix that.

That's... A whole lot of "libvirt"s in the page after the change.

I don't have brilliant ideas on how to improve upon that, though.
Perhaps use "libvirt.org" instead of "libvirt"? Food for thought.

For the time being, with the commit message fixed
