Where did you get the libvirt 0.8.8 package for 10.04 ? The version of libvirt in 10.04 is 0.7.5-5ubuntu27.11 (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt).
>From the error message that you've given, I would guess that the newer libvirt needs a newer kernel, or other dependency that isn't there on 10.04. I'm marking this "Won't Fix" as we don't really support newer versions of software. If I've mis-diagnosed this, please do re-open the bug stating why. Alternatively, you could request a backport of this version of kvm to lucid (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports). ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu) Status: New => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to libvirt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/794978 Title: libvirt fails to start on ubuntu 10.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/794978/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
