uninstall the distro version, and your self-built version is installed
in locations that pick up the distro version. Did you use the right
configure flags?
Ah, apt - are you on debian or ubuntu? I don't know as much about the

versions that those distros are using (I'm personally using Fedora 16,
along with the fedora-virt-preview repo, which gives 0.9.10 pre-built).
There might be someone already shipping a pre-built 0.9.10 apt, but I

wouldn't know where to tell you to look, so building from source is the
other alternative. If you build from libvirt.git, you can use
'./autobuild.sh --system' to help set the ./configure options that match
with the typical installation directories for at least Fedora, but
again, I don't know how that fares with the debian installation layout
(and patches are welcome to autobuild.sh for anyone that wants to use it
on a debian layout).
Yeah, I am using Ubuntu 11.10. I was able to uninstall the old libvirt and virsh works again but still getting this when trying to start the vm:
testa@testaT4:~$ virsh list

testa@testaT4:~$ virsh version

Thanks again for helping me out!
