[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#555748: virt-manager: Error cloning virtual machine (local variable 'src_fd' referenced before assignment)

[Olivier Berger]

Package: virt-manager
Version: 0.8.0-2
Severity: normal

Hi.

Trying to clone a virtual machine, I got this error :
Error creating virtual machine clone 'vm1': local variable 'src_fd' referenced before assignment

The acompanying trace is :
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/clone.py", line 751, in _async_clone
    CloneManager.start_duplicate(self.clone_design, meter)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/virtinst/CloneManager.py", line 634, in start_duplicate
    _do_duplicate(design, meter)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/virtinst/CloneManager.py", line 659, in _do_duplicate
    dst_dev.setup(meter)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/virtinst/VirtualDisk.py", line 905, in setup
    self._do_create_storage(progresscb)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/virtinst/VirtualDisk.py", line 801, in _do_create_storage
    self._clone_local(progresscb, size_bytes)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/virtinst/VirtualDisk.py", line 886, in _clone_local
    if src_fd is not None:
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'src_fd' referenced before assignment

This happened while trying to clone an existing image to a clone of its disk to be created in a LVM volume.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
