Not every error message from qemu-ga has to have the 'class' field filled out. For instance, I've seen this error message lately: qemuAgentCheckError:1047 : unable to execute QEMU agent command \ {"execute":"guest-set-time"}: \ {"error":{"desc":"Invalid parameter type, expected: integer"}} However, this got translated into rather generic error message: internal error: unable to execute QEMU agent command 'guest-set-time': unknown QEMU command error So we've dropped better error message in favor of a generic one. This is due to our code which expects 'class' which is not present here.
