Hi,

trying the same from the python shell, i get the same error:
>>> import libvirt
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 25, in <module>
    raise lib_e
ImportError: /usr/lib64/libvirt.so.0: undefined symbol: selinux_virtual_domain_context_path
>>>

The lines in the above mentioned file around 25 looks like this:
# On cygwin, the DLL is called cygvirtmod.dll
try:
    import libvirtmod
except ImportError, lib_e:
    try:
        import cygvirtmod as libvirtmod
    except ImportError, cyg_e:
        if str(cyg_e).count("No module named"):
            raise lib_e

raise lib_e is line 25.

Does it try to find a file from cygwin ?
