HI!
After update to snapshot 20180815 I cannot connect to local libvirtd with virt-manager anymore (see traceback attached below). It does not ask for root password like it did before. /usr/lib/polkit-1/polkitd seems to be running. Hmm, I'm not sure whether this was still working with the recent snapshots before.
Machine was rebooted after zypper dup and connecting to a remote libvirtd via SSH works just fine.
There are some more strange things with some VMs but I have to investigate this a bit further.
As the same normal user this works:
$ virsh -c qemu:///system list ==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.libvirt.unix.manage ==== System policy prevents management of local virtualized systems Authenticating as: root Password: ==== AUTHENTICATION COMPLETE ==== Id Name State ---------------------------------------------------- [..VM listed here..]
Ciao, Michael.
