[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#531802: Bug#531802: libvirt0: bridges containing VLAN interfaces are not recognized

[Andreas Unterkircher]

Almost the same, just that my bridge was also type manual as I do not 
configure a IP address for it. And both devices link status was set to up.

> iface vlan2 inet manual
>       vlan-raw-device eth0 
> 
> iface br0 inet static
>            address 192.168.1.2
>            network 192.168.1.0
>            netmask 255.255.255.0
>            broadcast 192.168.1.255
>            gateway 192.168.1.1
>            bridge_ports vlan2
> 	   bridge_fd 2

I copy pasted your's into my /etc/network/interfaces and up'ed vlan2 
first by ifup, then br1. Then I started virt-manager 0.7.0-3 and the new 
bridge is not selectable from the list.


iface vlan2 inet manual
    vlan-raw-device eth0

iface br1 inet static
    address 192.168.1.2
    network 192.168.1.0
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    broadcast 192.168.1.255
    gateway 192.168.1.1
    bridge_ports vlan2
    bridge_fd 2

How your debug output looks like when you start virt-manager?


Also restarting hald & libvirtd before makes no difference.
