[libvirt] Cannot enumerate physical devices with libvirt 0.7.6

Hi all, I often update my F12 box with the rawvirt repository, which just installed libvirt 0.7.6. Since that, I cannot enumerate physical devices (and thus get a beautiful error when I start one of my vms that should use a USB device). I don't think I changed anything else on that box, and, of course, I already restarted the libvirt daemon. I haven't restarted the server itself, because it is currently used, but I could do it if necessary... I make good use of the qemu hypervisor, and I'm looking forward to solve this issue!

It would appear that the udev driver failed to start - there are probably messages in syslog about the problem Regards, Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :|
