Public bug reported:

I started up virt-manager from the terminal using sudo.  From there I
launched the wizard to create a new virtual machine.  I selected mostly
defaults and used a 10.04 64-bit server ISO as the install disk.
However, when I get to the end (step 5 of 5) and click finish, I get the
following error:

Unable to complete install: 'POST operation failed: xend_post: error
from xen daemon: (xend.err "Error creating domain: device model
'/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm' not found")'

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 44, in cb_wrapper
    callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/create.py", line 1899, in do_install

  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/virtinst/Guest.py", line 1223, in

  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/virtinst/Guest.py", line 1291, in

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/libvirt.py", line 2114, in createLinux
    if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateLinux() failed', 
conn=self)
libvirtError: POST operation failed: xend_post: error from xen daemon: 
(xend.err "Error creating domain: device model '/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm' not 
found")

I have seen the same error in 11.10 and it seems to stem from the fact
that there is no /usr/lib64 folder.  The correct path is really
/usr/lib/xen-4.1/bin/qemu-dm.  I could make a symlink to the correct
folder, but this should work out of the box imo.
