[Laurent Bigonville]

Package: virt-manager
Version: 1:1.4.0-3
Severity: important

Hi,

When trying to run a Fedora VM (selecting Fedora 24) I get the following
error:

Impossible de terminer l'installation : « unsupported configuration: unknown input device type 'virtio1.0-input' »

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 88, in cb_wrapper
    callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/create.py", line 2288, in _do_async_install
    guest.start_install(meter=meter)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/guest.py", line 461, in start_install
    doboot, transient)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/guest.py", line 396, in _create_guest
    self.domain = self.conn.createXML(install_xml or final_xml, 0)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/libvirt.py", line 3773, in createXML
    if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateXML() failed', conn=self)
libvirtError: unsupported configuration: unknown input device type 'virtio1.0-input'


There is already a fedora bug open: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1391522

According to that bug, it's already fixed upstream:
