Re: [libvirt] KVM/qemu: problems with autostart of vms with non-bridged nets

This > means starting this vm fails. I came up with the attached patch to fix this for me, but a) I'm not sure if it is a clean use of the api to call virConnectOpen() from within a state-initializer function b) This is just for qemu/kvm, I haven't looked at any other drivers It would be nice if an experienced libvirt-developer could take a look at this. Thank you very much.
