Right now we aren't showing the defaults like disk buses, sound devices, disk cache modes, etc. This is confusing to the user and not that useful. Encode the defaults before launching the wizard, so the user can see what the end config will actually look like. This might cause weirdness if going back to the create.py wizard, but we'll see if anyone complains before handling that.
Virtual Machine Manager ======================= This application provides a graphical tool for managing virtual machines via the libvirt library. The front end of the application uses the GTK / Glade libraries for all user interaction components. The back end uses libvirt for managing Qemu/KVM and Xen virtual machines, as well as LXC containers. The UI is primarily tested with KVM, but is intended to be reasonably portable to any virtualization backend libvirt supports. Pre-requisite software ====================== virt-manager was ported to GTK3 at the beginning of 2013. Older GTK3 or pygobject3 versions likely will not work for running virt-manager. Earliest tested versions of major components: python >= 2.6 gtk3 >= 3.6 libvirt-python >= 0.4.0 pygobject3 >= 3.4 libosinfo >= 0.2.10 A more detailed dependency list can be found in virt-manager.spec.in. On Debian based distributions you need to install the gobject-introspection bindings for some depedencies like libvirt-glib and libosinfo. Look for package names that start with 'gir'.
