Can you tell me what operating system you are seeing this on ?
This is on Ubuntu 18.04.2
Also, can you confirm that you're using the stock unit files that libvirt
distributes, with no local customizations ?
As far as I'm aware there are no modifications to the unit file. I produced
the problem by just pulling libvirt 5.6.0 and running:
./autogen.sh --system
make
make install
service libvirtd start
