Expected Behavior

After running sudo ./kvm-qemu.sh all <username> I will be able to run virt-manager and interact with that.

Current Behavior

I updated and upgraded newly installed Ubuntu 20.04. I want to use kvm for cape sandbox so I needed to use kvm-qemu.sh. After running it and rebooting and running virt-manager I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/virt-manager", line 6, in <module>
    from virtManager import virtmanager
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/virtmanager.py", line 16, in <module>
    gi.require_version('LibvirtGLib', '1.0')
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 129, in require_version
    raise ValueError('Namespace %s not available' % namespace)
ValueError: Namespace LibvirtGLib not available

During installation of only libvirt (sudo ./kvm-qemu.sh libvirt <username>) at the end I get this - https://pastebin.pl/view/246c228a. Exactly the same if I try to install sudo pip3 install libvirt-python.

I tried to investigate what could be the cause.

• I found I should try to install libvirt-dev, but there is unmet dependencies (libvirt0)
• libvirt0 has no installation candidate
• I found couple more dependencies but package manager has still problem with libvirt0 or they are just not present…

I run this script few weeks ago and I was successful. I will try to search for the solution. Do you have some tip? Thank You.
