~/.virt-manager/virt-manager.log

Not sure how to describe this... when I run virt-manager as normal, it forks to background with what looks like a harmless deprecation message:

~ $ virt-manager 
/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py:306: DeprecationWarning: Importing dbus.glib to use the GLib main loop with dbus-python is deprecated.
Instead, use this sequence:

    from dbus.mainloop.glib import DBusGMainLoop

    DBusGMainLoop(set_as_default=True)

  import dbus.glib
~ $

Then nothing happens for a few minutes, I assume it's crashed, forget about it, and later on the window pops up and stays frozen for another minute or two. I've tried running it in `strace -ff` and it seems blocked on input from some fd #8 that I can't find a corresponding open() for.

If I run it with --no-fork (or --debug, same thing) it opens instantly and works fine.

I've tried all versions currently in tree (0.8.7-0.9.1) and they all have this problem. Running python-updater didn't fix it.

Attached is a log of one full startup.

I've deleted all the *.py[co] files in /usr/share/virt-manager then reinstalled it, and that seems to have fixed the hang.
