looking at the status it shows preset:disabled

As I understand it preset is used somewhere in the initial installation of fedora to figure

out which services should be enabled by default. After installation it's not used normally.

As a user you can symlink services into the right place in /etc/systemd/system or use

the systemctl enable/disable commands to do the symlinking for you.

I don't see any entry for libvirtd in /etc/systemd/system after having started it. There is an entry in /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants pointing to /usr/lib/systemd/system/libvirtd.service which looks unchanged.

What symlink would be expected?

After a system boot
