Description of problem: In older versions of virt-manager, you could click on the vm property window and it would show the current /dev/pts/XX that ttyS0 was connected to. It no longer displays that information, just a useless "(pts)". So I end up having to try all /dev/pts/* to find my serial console. It would be nice to get that feature back
Thanks for the report, fixed upstream now: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git?p=virt-manager.git;a=commit;h=bb1832248cc3219cf6a3f3f4d91498f72cb45b85
