The most recent version of virt-manager (1.0.0) is available in deb packages from ppa:jacob/virtualisation. See https://launchpad.net/~jacob/+archive/virtualisation?field.series_filter=trusty

I'm using virt-manager version 1.0.0 from ppa:jacob/virtualisation with Trusty, and it's working great for me.

I too hope that we can get virt-manager updated to version 1.0.0 in the repository for Trusty.

It is too late to get virt-manager 1.0.0 into trusty. The following packages are now dependencies and would require to be promoted to main:

python-ipaddr
libvirt-glib
spice-gtk
virt-viewer

This won't happen before 14.10.

This bug was fixed in the package virt-manager - 1:1.0.1-0ubuntu1

---------------
virt-manager (1:1.0.1-0ubuntu1) utopic; urgency=medium

  * Merge from debian experimental. (LP: #1213337)
  * Merged changes from Ubuntu virt-manager package:
    - Updated to 1.0.1 release
    - debian/control: Depend on gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1 for appindicator
      support.
    - debian/control: Add lsb-release to BuildDepends so we can detect
      whether we're running on Ubuntu or Debian.
    - debian/rules: Set qemu user to libvirt-qemu so appropriate
      permissions get set.
    - debian/rules: Set the preferred distro so we appear first in the
      list.
    - debian/patches/more_helpful_error_message.patch: explain to the user
      why connecting to qemu:///system failed and how to fix it.
    - debian/patches/use_ubuntu_package_names.patch: Suggest installing the
      packages that are actually available in Ubuntu.
    - debian/patches/uefi_support.patch: ugly hack to add a UEFI firmware
      option.
  * Merged changes from Ubuntu virtinst package:
    - debian/patches/virtinst/9004_ubuntu_fix_tree_support.patch: Fix tree
      detection for all ISO/HTTP source, to not longer fail with
      cobbler/koan.
    - debian/patches/virtinst/9005_ubuntu_releases.patch: add Trusty,
      updated support status, and switch back to cirrus by default to get a
      reasonable screen size during installation.
    - debian/patches/virtinst/9006_fix_path_to_qemu-dm.patch: drop the full
      path from qemu-dm as already done for hvmloader and pygrub. The Xen
      tools will handle this and add the missing path.
  * debian/patches/add_qemu_binaries.patch: add the actual binary names
    from the qemu packages so default hypervisor detection works properly
    on first run.
  * debian/patches/fix_changing_graphics_type.patch: fix changing the
    graphics type in the details dialog.
  * debian/patches/hook_into_domain_balloon_event.patch: properly hook into
    hotplug events so memory size gets updated.

    vcpus in the customize dialog.
