[libvirt-users] libvirt 1.19: could not open drive file (permission denied)

[crequill]

Indeed, I have a link between /var/lib/libvirt/images and my home
directory on an another partition.

# ls -al /var/lib/libvirt/images
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17  3 sept. 09:29 /var/lib/libvirt/images ->
/home/crequill/VM
