[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#659956: libvirt-bin: virsh/virt-manager connection failure: Cannot recv data: Value too large for defined data type, Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2012 10:12:18 +0200

[~redShadow~]

I'm experiencing this bug too. Here it is some relevant information:

Client machine:

Debian Wheezy 64bit
virt-manager	0.9.1-4
libvirt-bin	0.9.12-11
libvirt0	0.9.12-11
python-libvirt	0.9.12-11

Problematic server machine:

Debian Wheezy 64bit
libvirt-bin	0.9.12-11
libvirt0	0.9.12-11
python-libvirt	0.9.12-11
qemu-kvm	1.1.2+dfsg-6

But I'm not experiencing any problem with this:

Debian Squeeze+Wheezy 64bit
libvirt-bin	0.9.12-11
libvirt0	0.9.12-11
python-libvirt	0.9.12-11
qemu-kvm	0.12.5+dfsg-5+squeeze10
virt-viewer	0.2.1-1
virtinst	0.500.3-2


..so, I suspect it depends in some whay on qemu version..? or, anyways,
it's not strictly related to the libvirt version, but to something in
the middle?

Interesting thing is, I can connect, without any problem, from the
server virsh to the server itself, even via ssh, but I cannot from a
remote machine, with the exact same version of virsh..
