I want to run libvirtd as a special user, and allowing users that belong

I did everything necessary to do so: created a libvirt user and group,
added the libvirt user to the kvm group, added my normal user to the
libvirt group, and made sure the socket is owned by libvirt:libvirt with
permissions set to 770.
libvirtd starts successfully, but when I try to connect as the normal
user I get this error:
bash$ virsh --connect qemu+unix://system
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: invalid argument: using unix socket and remote server 'system' is
not supported.
This is not valid URI.

You may want to use 'qemu+unix:///system' or simply 'qemu:///system'
which is the same because libvirt connects via unix socket by default.
Anyway, you'll need to run libvirtd privileged, otherwise it'll get
EPERM when trying to do almost anything.
