Description of problem: When I run virt-manager, it does not launch and I get presented with the following error message: > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager", line 33, in <module> > from virtinst import util as util > File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/__init__.py", line 89, in <module> > from virtinst.distroinstaller import DistroInstaller > File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/distroinstaller.py", line 23, in <module> > from . import urlfetcher > File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/urlfetcher.py", line 34, in <module> > import requests > File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/__init__.py", line 60, in <module> > from .packages.urllib3.exceptions import DependencyWarning > File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/packages/__init__.py", line 29, in <module> > import urllib3 > File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3/__init__.py", line 8, in <module> > from .connectionpool import ( > File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3/connectionpool.py", line 39, in <module> > from .util.request import set_file_position > ImportError: cannot import name set_file_position Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Seems to be "1.4.1-2.fc26" How reproducible: N/A Steps to Reproduce: 1. dnf install virt-manager (on Fedora 26) 2. virt-manager 3.

This is very likely to do with multiple installed but conflicting versions of python urllib3 or python requests. See my comments on this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1459100 I'm closing since I'm nearly positive this is not a virt-manager issue, not impossible you'll need to file a urllib3 or requests bug though
I'm afraid I don't have access to the linked bug.
Sorry about that, I've opened it up now
