So this is not the bug I was thinking of. (In fact it's obvious now I look closer. This has nothing to do with libvirt, and the error message is being generated by libguestfs earlier on) Is there some other reason that libguestfs would not be able to open that file in /tmp? Perhaps there is an SELinux AVC? Or /tmp has strange permissions ...? Is /tmp a tmpfs mount? I believe the actual code path you're hitting is this one: https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/blob/stable-1.22/src/drives.c#L660 I'm not exactly sure why that fails.
