Thank you for the quick reply. I tried to remove the
<virtualport
type='openvswitch'/> line from the network xml and now the network is
created. However when i try to launch the vm with virt-install i get
again the error Unable to add bridge snort port vnet0: Operation not
supported which was what led me to upgrade my libvirt version
Any other ideas?
Sorry, I don't have an immediate test env to try this, maybe you can
examine your debug logs to see if you find more meaningful clues
log_level = 1
log_outputs="1:file:/var/tmp/libvirtd.log"
in /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf
Restart libvirtd. (And, don't forget to turn it off, once you finish
your debugging - it'll fill your disk space pretty quickly, otherwise.)
