Looking at the upstream code repos from http://virt-manager.org/scmrepo.html the code there that is relevant to this has changed significantly, but introduces a new version of this bug that causes the same problem. I'm going to go try to file a bug+patch up there.
Well I verified that the version i had that was working was 0.9.1-1ubuntu2 and 0.9.1-1ubuntu3 doesn't. So the bug was introduced in http:// bazaar. launchpad. net/~ubuntu- branches/ ubuntu/ precise/ virt-manager/ precise/ revision/ 58/src/ virtManager/ domain. py
So this is probably different than Paul van Genderen's problem was.
Since I've been looking at this 0.9.1-1ubuntu4 has been released. While apt-get update+upgrade doesn't give it to me yet, looking at http:// bazaar. launchpad. net/~ubuntu- branches/ ubuntu/ precise/ virt-manager/ precise/ revision/ 59?start_ revid=59 doesn't look likely to fix it.
