OK, I found a solution, likely the right one. After the upgrade, I found a new file, /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf.dpkg-dist. After diffing it against qemu.conf, I copied the following two stanzas from the upgrade file to the configuration file:
# The user ID for QEMU processes run by the system instance
#user = "libvirt-qemu"
user = "root"
# The group ID for QEMU processes run by the system instance
#group = "kvm"
group = "root"
I don't know why I missed it during the upgrade. If enough other folks have this problem, it might be worth investigating.
Thierry, I'm not sure I can change the status of this to "fixed"; if not would you please do so?
