I did a second install on a different host, and my yesterday problem 
was, that I removed the libvirt-bin, libvirt0 and because of 
dependencies python-libvirt before installing the new packages.
But without the python-libvirt package I get "ImportError: No module 
named libvirt" error.


After my first mail I did only remove libvirt-bin, and it worked.
I have now python-libvirt from Intrepid installed, and it works on both 
boxes.
