[Bug 736844] Re: kvm default install throws "Unable to open a connection to the libvirt management daemon" requires logout + login

[Goksu]

Hi,

The reason the error shows is because with apt-get your user is not added to the necessary group.
this should somehow be handled within the install script. 
a logoff/login is then required to get that setting activated (though there should be another way in linux).

Hope this helps.

You need to ensure that your username is added to the group libvirtd:

$ sudo adduser `id -un` libvirtd
Adding user '<username>' to group 'libvirtd' ...
After this, you need to relogin ...
