at least it should not crash but issue an error message.

VMBuilder should definitely handle this more gracefully, but your
particular problem is that the libvirt uri you are passing is wrong.
It's supposed to be qemu:///system (three slashes, not two).

Can you try to run this with the fixed libvirt option that soren said?

Thanks
