Bug Description

Binary package hint: libvirt-bin

When creating a new virtual machine with virt-manager, I was not able to start it. Looking at strace and kern.log showed that kvm did a chown:

kernel: [110203.023217] type=1503 audit(1253588634.819:276): operation="capable" pid=28692 parent=28691 profile="libvirt-3c7d4020-4339-04f1-024e-01639d6b4542" name="chown"

adding
capability chown,
to /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/libvirt-qemu seems to have fixed that.

Now strace shows:
chown("/dev/pts/4", 0, 5) = 0
