Description of problem:

$ sudo virt-install --network network=default -r 1024 --prompt --boot menu=on --os-variant fedora16 --disk pool=home_storage,size=6,format=qcow2 --vcpus=1 -l /mnt/f16iso/ -x "divider=10 ks=http://192.168.122.1/ks.cfg" --name test8

Things appear to run, but why the traceback?  The storage file wasn't there, but that is allowed, and was created in the next step. Can we get a fix for this?

I'm guessing that image file was deleted behind libvirt's back, but the pool wasn't refreshed so it had stale data. There are various proposals to try and make directory pools 'auto refresh' which will fix this, but otherwise this isn't strictly a bug.
