Bug Description

If SSH fails due to a key mismatch, the user is not notified that SSH is the problem. Instead, virt-manager presents a generic dialog about libvirtd problems.

This was a mix of libvirt and virt-manager: both weren't returning SSH errors properly. This is now fixed upstream in both packages, so closing.
