Hi Im using the latest Rome slim version just installed and updated. The KDE version.
Desktop environment (KDE, LXQT…):
Rome slim version KDE
Description of the issue (screenshots if relevant):
The issue is virt-manager tries to start and then closes. I ran virt-manager --debug and this is the info it gives:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/virt-manager", line 6, in <module>
from virtManager import virtmanager
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/virtmanager.py", line 14, in <module>
gi.require_version("Gdk", "3.0")
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: module 'gi' has no attribute 'require_version'
Any help would be appreciated! BTW, I use Fedora normally but am duel booting Open Mandriva. The key before I move is getting Qemu with virt-manager working as I run one program from Windows 11 that will never be ported or able to run in Linux.
If I did not give the right data please let me know as this is my first try here. LOL
Relevant informations (hardware involved, software version, logs or output…):
I’m admittedly clueless but let’s start with the obvious. Do you have PyGObject installed? The gi module requires that package. Check with pip list in Konsole. If you don’t have it, install with pip install PyGObject.
I’ve been using virt-manager without issue on Rome. So, I did check on what gdk packages I have installed and came up with the list below. My guess is lig64gdk3_0 or possibly lib64dgkx11-gir3.0 is needed, but it’s hard to say for sure.
Thanks for the help! the only two of these which were not already installed was the firewalld and the dnsmasq and after installing and a libvirtd my virt-manager is now connecting. Why? still no idea but linux is always an education!
Thank you!
