Description: Ubuntu 13.10
Release: 13.10

In a clean system if I do:

sudo apt-get install libguestfs-tools

a guestfs appliance is created in the post-install script that does not work.

If I do:

sudo libguestfs-test-tool

I get the following error:

Failed to connect to virtio-serial channel.

This is a fatal error and the appliance will now exit.

Usually this error is caused by either QEMU or the appliance
kernel not supporting the vmchannel method that the
libguestfs library chose to use. Please run
'libguestfs-test-tool' and provide the complete, unedited
output to the libguestfs developers, either in a bug report
or on the libguestfs redhat com mailing list.

Please find attached the complete output of the libguestfs-test-tool command execution
