The message when failing to connect can be misleading as package names will differ per Distribution as well as not apply for e.g. self built binaries. This changes the message in a way to be more generic not implying literal package names. Signed-off-by: Christian Ehrhardt <christian.ehrhardt@canonical.com>
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.
Several command line tools are also provided:
virt-install: Create new libvirt virtual machinesvirt-clone: Duplicate existing libvirt virtual machinesvirt-xml: Edit existing libvirt virtual machines/manipulate libvirt XMLvirt-convert: Convert VMX or OVF configs to libvirt virtual machines
For dependency info and installation instructions, see the INSTALL.md file.
