Description Amit Shah 2014-03-12 07:22:42 UTC
Description of problem:

On my local laptop that runs F20, I have one VM created via virt-manager on the local connection.

I have another connection, to a RHEL6-based host, which has several VMs.

When I click 'new' to create a VM in the RHEL6 connection, virt-manager correctly uses /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm as the path to the binary.  In the same virt-manager session, if I create a new VM in the local connection, it again tries to use /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm, and fails, as on Fedora, the binary path is /usr/bin/qemu-kvm.

This reproduces the other way too: create a new VM on the local connection, and then attempt to create one on the remote connection, and the remote connection attempts to use /usr/bin/qemu-kvm.
