virt-manager.py crashed with SIGSEGV in virConnectNumOfDefinedDomains()

[Jim Perkins]

Binary package hint: virt-manager

i was trying to add another physical hard disk to my virtual ubuntu installation.
i added the disk by label.
this is a jaunty installation running a virtual intrepid
libvirtd locked up when trying to start the virtual machine

a section of /etc/libvirt/qemu/virtubuntu8.10.xml
( note this is really a sata drive but i didnt see a selection for sata)
 <disk type='block' device='disk'>
      <source dev='/dev/disk/by-label/big_drive'/>
      <target dev='hdb' bus='ide'/>
    </disk>

Thanks for reporting this issue. Can you still reproduce it with a recent version of virt-manager, such as the one in Karmic, or in Lucid?
