[libvirt-users] "virsh list" ahngs

Saturday, 18 February 2017

`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.
Thanks for your help!!
