libvirt-0.9.4-23.el6_2.6.x86_64 cannot parse the qemu 1.0 version strings:

15:11:04.081: 7168: error : qemuCapsParseHelpStr:1168 : internal error cannot parse /usr/bin/qemu-system-arm version number in 'QEMU emulator version 1.0 (qemu-kvm-1.0), Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard'

Comment 2 Peter Krempa 2012-03-23 08:12:32 UTC

Already supported upstream (0.9.8) and backported with the rebase into 6.3:

Hello Peter, Jiri,
I know qemu version is 1.0, but I want to confirm which version qemu-kvm and libvirt are? the current bug is ON_QA status, however, I can't find any libvirt version on 'Fixed In Version:' field.

Thanks,
Alex

Hey Alex,

This was fixed prior to the rebase, so any recent libvirt version will have support for it.  You'd also need a non-RHEL qemu to test.

Marking this CLOSED->UPSTREAM, since this is fixed upstream & RHEL does not support running custom built QEMU binaries.

Comment 7 Dave Allan 2012-03-26 20:21:16 UTC

Fair enough
