Package: virtinst
Version: 0.600.1-3+deb7u1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

Since upgrading qemu-kvm from version 1.1.2 (wheezy) to 1.7.0
(wheezy-backports), and also all associated packages such as
libvirt-bin from wheezy-backports, virt-install fails to create a new
vm.

The output from running virt-install with the --debug option is below:
