Bug Description
=======
Impact: virt-manager fails to start
Upstream fix: do not fail when /sys/class/
Development fix: cherrypick of the original patch.
Regression potential: the patch did need some porting, so if that was not done right we could get a regression during netcf or libvirt
Test case:
cat .> /etc/network/
iface eth0:1 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
EOF
virsh iface-dumpxml eth0:1
The virsh command should succeed and show something like
<interface type='ethernet' name='eth0:1'>
</interface>
=======
I upgraded my machine to vivid some weeks ago and never tested this VM I had working before.
When I try to use the virt-manager, it shows an error:
Error polling connection 'qemu:///system': internal error: could not get interface XML description: File operation failed - Failed to read (null)

Just to add that the VM domain can be successfully started by hand, with the "virsh start" command and I can use it with the virt-viewer command.
