A C toolkit to interract with the virtualization capabilities of Linux

Edit Package libvirt

Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization
capabilities of Linux. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means
the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently
on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a
Linux instance. The library aims to provide long term stable C API
to interact with Linux virtualization technologies.

We need a resolution to bug#1106813 before libvirt 4.7.0 can be submitted to Factory. Note that I have 4.7.0 packaged and staged in my home project

libvirt doesn't use the symbol g_uri_ref. There's likely something wrong with your libgobject installation. I just updated one of my TW machines and don't see the problem

~> sudo libvirtd --version

Apparently this was an issue which can only be reproduced in the version v1.0.20201025 of the vagrant box image , I upgraded it to v1.0.20201026 and the issue is gone. Thanks @jfehlig

VirtualBox is now at version 6.1.16. please update


The libvirt vbox driver is disabled. I'm happy to enable it if there is an interested maintainer.


oh i got the impression that libvirt maintainer also was the maintainer for Virtualbox. sorry for the confusion
