Package: virt-manager Version: 0.6.0-6 Severity: wishlist If someone is connecting to a remote host via ssh virt-manager fails to connect if there is no auto-connect available (i.e. the remote key has a sshkey with no passphrase). The only solution is to install a tool which ask you for a password like * ssh-askpass * ssh-askpass-fullscreen * ssh-askpass-gnome
Now, virt-manager will ask for the root password if neccessary and will not bail out with this error message: |Unable to open connection to hypervisor URI 'qemu+ssh://r...@box/system': |<class 'libvirt.libvirtError'> Connection reset by peer |Traceback (most recent call last): | File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/connection.py", line 486, in _open_thread | None], flags) | File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 99, in openAuth | if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virConnectOpenAuth() failed') |libvirtError: Connection reset by peer | Please add depends/recommends on one of these tools.
