I've been working with libvirtd and minikube and for some weird reason (I dont know why) firewalld doesnt provide an IP to the VM. So i stopped firewalld, I edited the file /etc/init.d/libvirtd and removed "need firewalld" option then I started libvirtd services and works fine finally the VM gets IP without problem.
Speaking in IRC channel @Dudemanguy  commented that the runit version of libvirtd doesnt have firewalld as a dependency.

So with this: It is possible to remove it?

Please try 'want firewalld' instead of 'need firewalld', i.e. make it an optional soft dependency. If it works, well change it to that otherwise we'll remove it.

I did this:

LIBVIRTD_OPTS=${LIBVIRTD_OPTS:-"${LIBVIRTD_OPTS}"}
LIBVIRTD_TIMEOUT=${LIBVIRTD_TERMTIMEOUT:-"TERM/25/KILL/5"}

command="/usr/bin/libvirtd"
command_args="-d ${LIBVIRTD_OPTS}"

retry="${LIBVIRTD_TERMTIMEOUT}"

depend() {
	need virtlogd
	use dbus virtlockd
	after ntp-client ntpd nfs nfsmount portmap rpc.statd iptables ip6tables ebtables corosync sanlock cgconfig xenconsoled
	want firewalld
	use avahi-daemon
	use iscsid
	use ceph
}

start_pre() {
	# Test configuration directories in /etc/libvirt/ to be either not
	# present or a directory, i.e. not a regular file, bug #532892

	checkpath --directory /etc/libvirt/lxc || return 1
	checkpath --directory /etc/libvirt/nwfilter || return 1
	checkpath --directory /etc/libvirt/qemu || return 1
	checkpath --directory /etc/libvirt/storage || return 1
}

$ sudo rc-service libvirtd start
libvirtd          | * Caching service dependencies ...    [ ok ]
virtlogd         | * Starting virtlogd ...
firewalld       | * Starting firewalld ...                            [ ok ]
libvirtd          | * Starting libvirtd ...                               [ ok ]

But my VM doesnt provied IP. I reverted the changes and works fine. So i believe we can remove it
