Friends:
I need some help and guidance from you regarding this virt-install issue
I am seeing.
OS : SuseEnterpriseLinuxServer (SLES) 12 Service Pack 1
virt-install version on the box
virtual@SLES12-bare:~> virt-install --version
1.2.1
libvirt version : libvirt-1.3.4-565.1.x86_64
SLES12 SP1 has libvirt 1.2.18. Do you have an openSUSE build service development
repo configured? Where did you get libvirt 1.3.4 for SLES12 SP1?
What I tried:
=========
I tried to start virt-install as regular user and I am seeing errors
listed below.
If I start the same with sudo it works (the user virtual shown here is a
sudo enabled user)
I really want to start the virt-install as a regular user.
Please help.

Looks like a session instance of virtlogd is not running.
BTW, have you tried the latest libvirt 1.2.18 that is available for SLES12 SP1?
1.2.18 is the supported version in SLES12 SP1 and enjoys more testing than
arbitrary later versions.
