Re: 'module' object has no attribute '__version__'

[James Clement <james.clement@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think you are correct.

[root@al11 virtManager]# python -c 'import virtinst; print virtinst'
<module 'virtinst' from '/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/__init__.pyc'>
[root@al11 virtManager]# vi cli.py
[root@al11 virtManager]# virt-manager
<module 'virtinst' from '/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/__init__.pyc'>

Unsure how to proceed, I am a bit of a newbie to this. Thanks.

My guess is there's two copies of virtinst installed. Edit
/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/cli.py and do 'print virtinst' right
before the virtinst.__version__ failure, and compare that to python -c 'import
virtinst; print virtinst'
