I value your explanations very much however it seems that in our case: . this is observed in a test framework, and we run into this problem right after installing for the first time, there’s no upgrading in the loop . I should probably have added the extract below to the report this is captured at build-time when preparing the image that these nodes will be running as you can see the post install snippet responsible for creating the /etc/libvirt/… stub fails because at that time, the source from /usr/share/libvirt is not available yet Installing : libvirt-client-1.2.1-0.x86_64 242/340 Installing : libvirt-python-1.2.1-0.x86_64 243/340 ...
