[libvirt-users] Problem starting VM

[junkmail]

Thank you for your response.  I did just find this forum article a few 
hours ago.
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-978702-start-0.html
Which references this bug with Gentoo:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=493246

This would appear to be a problem with how Gentoo is managing 
dependences etc.  As I am not using systemd for init, but some other 
installed software is requireing it to be there.

At the moment to make my VMs start I have uninstalled Systemd leaving a 
broken dependency situation.

If you have any advice on how maybe to have Libvirt ignore systemd etc.  
That might be handy. ;)

Anyway thanks again for your follow up.
