Yes I see where the file comes from, but what I am asking is how are you
selecting this value in the UI? Can you give me specific steps how you
are triggering this bug with upstream virt-manager? Reproduce and
pastebin virt-manager --debug output will help
suse has a lot of downstream patches so I want to make sure this isn't
due to something specific added there
