Thanks, indeed that works. Guess I'm just used to the libvirt qemu:///system
URI :)

Trying it now with docker://fedora ... does virt-bootstrap require running as
root? It doesn't seem to generate a usable container dir without root, I see
errors like:

/bin/tar: etc/alternatives/cifs-idmap-plugin: Cannot open: Permission denied
/bin/tar: etc/alternatives/libnssckbi.so.x86_64: Cannot open: Permission denied
/bin/tar: etc/cifs-utils/idmap-plugin: Cannot open: Permission denied

/bin/tar: etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/gnutls28.config: Cannot open:
Permission denied
/bin/tar: etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/java.config: Cannot open: Permission
denied
/bin

And so on. But virt-bootstrap still reports success.

Another issue I noticed: would be nice to get the virt-bootstrap output into
the virt-manager debug log

The UI generally looks good though, nice work
