I installed libvirt-0.9.8 (instead of 0.9.6) and it works fine with qemu-1.0-r2. Gentoo doesn't have to backport it. There is 0.9.8 allready in portage, but masked (means not 100% stable). But qemu-kvm-1.0-r2 is also marked as masked. Therefore it is only a combination of one masked (qemu-kvm-1.0-r2) and one unmasked (libvirt-0.9.6) package, which isn't anything I could complain about :) Maybe I should fill in a "bug" report that if qemu-kvm is unmasked they need to unmask libvirt, too. I'll thing about it. Thank you for clearing things up. Kind regards, Felix Blanke
