virt-manager --debug
Clean install, then ran virt-manager --debug.
+1
When i try to launch Virt-Manager, a pop-up dialog says it want to
install some packages... But i already installed the Virtualization group...
The package it want to install are:
qemu-system-x86
libvirt-daemon-kvm
libvirt-daemon-kvm-config-network
# yum groupinstall virtualization
Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit
No packages in any requested group available to install or update
# yum install qemu-system-x86 libvirt-daemon-kvm
libvirt-daemon-kvm-config-network
Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit
Package 2:qemu-system-x86-1.6.1-2.fc20.x86_64 already installed and
latest version
Package libvirt-daemon-kvm-1.1.3.1-2.fc20.x86_64 already installed and
latest version
No package libvirt-daemon-kvm-config-network available.
If i follow the popup, it also fails to install:
Error talking to PackageKit:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PackageKit.Failed: The packages
qemu-system-x86,libvirt-daemon-kvm,libvirt-daemon-config-network are

I am launching Virt-Manager via a ssh -Y session for the first time
after install. I know for past experience that Virt-Manager always
request something.
So it seems harmless as Virt-Manager does run after the dialog.
If i close Virt-Manager and launch it again, the pop-up luckily does not appear.
I am using the latest iso TC4 and it is fully updated.
This is sub-optimal, but it is intentional here. If we want to check for the packages first, we have to reimplement a chunk of gnome-packagekit. We did that for a while but it was error prone and tough to get right, so I removed it. Now we just call out to packagekit, but it basically merges the check and install steps. If the packages are installed, it should just show a 'packages already installed' message after the initial dialog, and virt-manager should move on (though we are too noisy here, which is bug #1034693, but that's fixed upstream now). So this is acting as intended. Closing as WONTFIX |
Created attachment 827458 [details] screenshot Description of problem: Upon first launch, virt-manager pops up a message that additional software is required. rpm -q shows these packages as already installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-manager-0.10.0-5.git1ffcc0cc.fc20.noarch How reproducible: Only on first launch. After cancelling the dialog and relaunching the message doesn't occur. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install F20 final live desktop TC2 2. yum groupinstall Virtualization 3. reboot 4. launch virt-manager Actual results: dialog indicates additional software needs to be installed Expected results: not this Additional info:
