Package: gnome-boxes
Version: 3.20.2-2

Since a recent update I cannot start my virtual machines (all of them).

After some time gnome-boxes send a message "Failed to start...".

In the syslog I have:

libvirtd[11010]: Failed to connect socket to
'/run/user/1000/libvirt/virtlogd-sock': No such file or directory
libvirtd[11010]: Failed to connect socket to

I did not find a report on Debian for this issue. But I have found
this issue reported here:

   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1351995

It seems that libaudit1 should be upgraded to 2.6.2 (currently 2.6.1
on Debian/sid). So maybe this is just about upgrading this package
after all.

Let me know if more information is needed.
