Package: libvirt-bin
Version: 0.5.0-1
Severity: normal
Maybe this bug should be important as it makes one driver
not-usable.
Hi there,
As per libvirt's docs:
KVM hypervisor: The driver will probe /usr/bin for the presence of
qemu-kvm and /dev/kvm device node. If both are found, then KVM
fullyvirtualized, hardware accelerated guests will be available.
This is true, as if there's not /usr/bin/qemu-kvm you can't do KVM
virtual machines (and if you have no qemu installed you can only do
UML then).
I had to manually create a link from qemu-kvm to kvm and I can now do
KVM machines. Maybe either the kvm package should provide this link or
the libvirt-bin package should be changed to check for /usr/bin/kvm
instead of qemu-kvm
Thanks for packaging libvirt!
Marc
