I can honestly say that I haven't experienced so much pain working with
libvirt/virt-manger. If I had I probably would have given up, but I've

What versions of packages are you using? Are you mixing stable/unstable packages?
I can't really say. I've never seen that error before. What steps are
you taking to create the VM?
