virt-manager doesn't have any specific firewalld checking so this is likely coming from libvirt. I don't know anything about arch packaging, but if the libvirt package doesn't pull in firewalld then maybe libvirt should be built --without-firewalld What libvirt version is this? And what's the exact error message you are seeing? - Cole -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
