If using  printf() output is buffered so may not appear immediately in
the logs. For debugging it is best to use  g_printerr("%s\n", __func__)
which gets sent to stderr which is unbuffered so will appear immediately.

Of course the other possib8lity is that the code where you put ehe
printf statements is not being invoked by the tests you're trying.

The log file libvirt creates will capture both stdout & stderr.
