Did you build libvirt yourself? This error generally occurs when the
libvirtd binary was compiled to live in one location, but your
self-compiled virsh and libvirt.so are compiled to look in another. If
you are going to self-compile, you must ensure that the system libvirtd
is running at the same location; the easiest way to do that is to make
sure you specify configure options that match what your distro would do
('./autogen.sh --system' can help with that, especially for Fedora-based
systems); but it's also possible to uninstall your distro's version and
install your self-built version, as well as modify your system's init
setup to make sure it runs your self-built libvirtd as a daemon.
