I'm curious, can you successfully run libvirtd as your own user (no sudo)? 03:10:17.562: error : qemudListenUnix:582 : Failed to bind socket to '@/Users/ruben/.libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory Stepping through the code now, I see 2 (possible) issues: First: qemudInitPaths doesn't seem to create the ~/.libvirt directory Second: in qemudListenUnix, this piece of code: addr.sun_family = AF_UNIX; if (virStrcpyStatic(addr.sun_path, path) == NULL) { VIR_ERROR(_("Path %s too long for unix socket"), path); goto cleanup; } if (addr.sun_path[0] == '@') addr.sun_path[0] = '\0'; So the first byte of the sun_path is '\0', something that Leopard doesn't seem to like. Breaking into gdb and setting the path manually to "/Users/ruben/.libvirt/libvirt-sock" seems to work.
