Package: virt-manager
Version: 0.5.2-3
Severity: normal
I installed virt-manager and libvirt-bin, changed
/etc/default/libvirt-bin and started the daemon.
I launched virt-manager as root, connected to localhost and set up a new
VM with qemu.
I selected a CD drive (with Windows 2003 already in) an image file for storage and a
bridged interface for network.
The installation worked OK until it came to reboot.
Instead of rebooting, the VM shutdown. When I restarted it, it continued
with the installation process, but was missing the CD drive from the
list of hardware, therefore could not continue.
When I tried to add a CD drive(Normal disk partition, IDE cdrom), I got this message
Unable to complete install 'exceptions.NameError global name
'libvirtError' is not defined
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/addhardware.py", line 530,

in add_device
except libvirtError, e:
NameError: global name 'libvirtError' is not defined
'
This prevented me from completing the installation
