Hi Jeff, what I tried to outline before for virsh applies to virt-manager as well as they are all just libvirt frontends. So the default of qemu:///system will be a system owned guest with all the implications (good and bad) that come with it. If you want to run "as user" it should be

Thanks Christian. Sadly, I don't care to create and spin up KVM instances from a command line, I prefer (as I presume most people do) to use virt-manager. When I set dynamic_ownership = 0, I am unable to boot due to a permission denied error: Error starting domain: internal error: process

Hi Jeff, this contains multiple questions at one. 1. for dynamic_ownership "why is the default not 0 here" => Because that is the upstream default and actually fixing issues with image permissions for a lot of people. 2. "arbitrarily be stolen from me when they're used BY ME" This isn't 100%

** Description changed: Libvirt should NOT be modifying ownership of my ISO images when mounting them to install a KVM instance. This causes issues later when I use zsync to update the images from the latest bits at cdimages.u.c. More importantly, my files should not arbitrarily be
