[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#857733: virt-manager: Permission denied on non-default repos.....

[Fulano Diego Perez]

Package: virt-manager
Version: 1:1.4.0-5
Severity: normal


cannot import previously created vm's due to permissions on vm repo

what perms are required for local vm repo ?

vm folder resides on physical disk @ /media/..........mounted with
whatever defaults nautilus affects.........

-------------

FWIW no such issues in subgraph with perms.....dont know if they tweaked it
