[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#736122: virtinst: Installing debian fails with "AttributeError: 'virStream' object has no attribute 'upload'"

Sun Jan 19 22:30:27 UTC 2014

Package: virtinst
Version: 0.600.4-2
Severity: normal

Installing Debian from an URL like that suggested by the man page (but
with .us. replaced with .fi.) fails with the error mentioned in the
subject.

I also tried with virtinst from experimental (however this run is from
the unstable version).

Entire output:
