Public bug reported: I am trying to add a filesystem (add new virtual hardware, filesystem) using libvirt's virt-manager to a guest and when I try to start the guest it fails with the following message:
virsh # start images error: Failed to start domain images error: internal error Process exited while reading console log output: char device redirected to /dev/pts/4 Virtio-9p Failed to initialize fs-driver with id:fsdev-fs0 and export path:<my path> I found this old bug report on debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=674919 and it appears that a similar bug was caused by a mismatch between the glib versions used to compile the package and available on the system.
