Hi All,
Newbie with virt-manager, 20+ yrs w/ Linux.
I tried the Debian 9 (stretch) default install (virt-manager 1.4.0-5), but it
wasn’t working [“python 3.4 or later is required, your's is
sys.version_info(major=2, minor=7, micro=13, releaselevel='final',
serial=0)”].
Since virt-manager 2.2.1 was just released, I compiled it (./setup.py
install), but while it launches without complaint it does nothing when I
click “New Virtual Machine.”
(Way too many copy/pasted notes below for reference.)
The virt-manager.log says:
“python guestfs is not installed”
but both python-guestfs and libguestfs-tools are installed. It is also saying
a pool 'default' already exists, but there’s nothing in the dir it talks
about.
It also states
“Uncaught exception: Namespace GtkSource not available”
which lead me to these posts [1], but none of the packages listed to install
are found (gtksourceview4, gir1.2-gtksource-4, libgtksourceview-4-0,
libgtksourceview-4-common). At the bottom of the bug report it seems to
indicate gtksourceview3 is acceptable (which is installed).
At this point I’m a bit lost on what to try next. Would some kind soul skim
my virt-manager.log and give me a pointer on what’s needed to get
virt-manager to let me create a new VM?
Hmm not sure, I figure installing gir1.2-gtksource-4 should give you
what you need, but I don't understand debian's gobject-introspection
package naming.
Try installing another graphical python tool that uses gtksource, like
meld. See if that works. Maybe it will pull in the magic package you need.
