/files/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf/security_driver = "none"
# augtool 
augtool> set /files/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf/security_driver "selinux"
augtool> save

--- Additional comment from lutter on 2011-12-01 15:47:50 PST ---

This was fixed upstream with commit f4c2d18a and will be available in the next release (> 0.9.0)

Comment 5 Qin Guan 2012-03-26 04:57:25 UTC
Verify this problem with augeas 0.9.0-2.el6:
- augeas-0.9.0-2.el6.x86_64
- augeas-libs-0.9.0-2.el6.x86_64

The autosave can save the configuration successfully:
# augtool --autosave set /files/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf/security_driver "selinux"
Saved 1 file(s)
# augtool print /files/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf/security_driver
/files/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf/security_driver = "selinux"

Reproduced to verify the steps with augeas 0.9.0-1.el6.

Mark it as VERIFIED as above testing.
