The new libvirt-1.0.1 version in portage removes the existing "/etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml" file if updating from libvirt-1.0.0. This leads to an issue when starting VM's. This will result in a network related error message and the VM's don't start. ...

Maybe use find -exec touch, like savedconfig.eclass for bug #396169: http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/eclass/savedconfig.eclass?r1=1.19&r2=1.20
Try to re-emerge, I've applied Zac's suggestion. You'll need to emerge it twice to check. emerge -1 libvirt && emerge -1 libvirt
- portage tree updated + libvirt reemerged 2 times - both times the "/etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml" file was kept - so the issue is solved Thank you for your help
