Is'nt there is any shortcut for the problem then to request virt-install because that is a very long procedure and might take weeks or months

Can any one help ??? If no emulator is specified in the XML, libvirt will probe a proper emulator from the driver's capabilities (See virsh capabilities) by the requested OS, arch, and domain type. The problem is virt-install doesn't has an option for you to specify the emulator path. And thus libvirt will always probe the emulator. So you might want to request virt-install to add an option for the emulator in virt-tools list.
