What are you doing? How are you using it? Need some context and details to reproduce.

Comment 9 fkhp 2011-07-22 00:53:10 UTC
0.9.3-r1 has the same problem.
Comment 10 brot 2011-07-28 16:45:32 UTC
Since i updated, my virtual-machine-monitor doesnt show my created VMs which were there before the update. When i then rightclick on the "localhost (qemu)" connection, it says:

* Libvirt connection does not support virtual network management
* Libvirt connection does not support storage management

i am using app-emulation/libvirt-0.9.3-r1 and app-emulation/virt-manager-0.8.7-r3

What USE flags are you using?

> 0.9.3-r1 has the same problem.

You likely need USE=virt-network if you want libvirt to manage a virtual network for you rather than using a bridge.
