When I want to create a new virtual machine from the virt-manager I get the following error:
Unable to complete install '<type 'exceptions.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/

File "/usr/lib/

File "/usr/lib/

I have reinstalled kvm with dependencies, but that did not lead to a good result.
