Description Giuseppe Scrivano 2013-09-11 09:01:32 UTC
virt-manager has no way to known the user/group that run the HV
process without requiring the user to manually set it trough setup.py
or assuming "root" as default value.

This information should be exposed by libvirt trough the capabilities XML.
