Re: [libvirt-users] "virsh list" hangs

`virsh list` hangs on my server that hosts a bunch of VMs. This might be due to the Debian upgrade I did on Feb 15, which upgrades `libvirt` from 2.4.0-1 to 3.0.0-2. I have tried restarting libvirtd for a few times, without luck. Attached below are some relevant logs; let me know if you need some more for debugging.
