[libvirt-users] no connection driver available for No connection for URI xen:///

Fri Mar 16 03:54:39 UTC 2012

Here it is:

# ll /usr/lib64/libvirt.so.0
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 16 Mar 12 21:19 /usr/lib64/libvirt.so.0 ->
libvirt.so.0.9.4

So you meant that I used a wrong libvirt.so? How can I correct this?
