ALso jsut saw this bug when working from http repo install without any install media.

Comment 4 Robert Lightfoot 2013-05-15 09:08:20 UTC
Proposing as Beta Blocker due to Self Hosting Virtualization Requirement -- "The release must be able host virtual guest instances of the same release. "

+1 blocker.

Comment 6 Tim Flink 2013-05-15 19:14:44 UTC
I just hit this on a fresh install of F19 TC4 (standard partitions, autopart, single disk). Updated post-install and installed virt-manager. Got the error shown in the debug output attached in c#2

Comment 9 Adam Williamson 2013-05-15 23:29:27 UTC
Discussed at 2013-05-15 blocker review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2013-05-15/f19beta-blocker-review-6.2013-05-15-16.02.html . Rejected as a blocker on the basis that there are various workarounds to get VMs working (use Boxes or virt-install), but accepted as a freeze exception issue.
