• Bug#1109131: virt-manager: Default network is not installed

    From user@21:1/5 to All on Sat Jul 12 07:10:01 2025
    Package: virt-manager
    Version: 1:5.0.0-5
    Severity: normal
    X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]

    Dear Maintainer,

    Consider the following:
    1. Install `virt-manager`, create a VM, shut it down
    2. Reboot
    3. Try to start the same VM again

    Step #3 will fail with `Error starting domain: Requested operation is not valid: network 'default' is not active`

    It is not a problem to recreate and start the network manually, but newcomers might be confused by such behaviour. And rightfully so.
