Oops, I seem to be running /sbin/init as PID #1, this is a symlink to upstart . I thought I was running systemd, since my /home on NFS didn't get mounted on boot anymore, and this is a known issue with systemd.

After the upgrade from 14.4 LTS to 14.10 utopic I was about to start my virtual machines. As myself I was unable to do so;

$ virsh list
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: no valid connection
error: Failed to find user record for uid 'xxx': No such file or directory

I then restarted libvirt-bin and 'virsh list' works again. The command worked for root all the time.
