virt-manager doesn't have any specific firewalld checking so this is likely
coming from libvirt. I don't know anything about arch packaging, but if the
libvirt package doesn't pull in firewalld then maybe libvirt should be built
--without-firewalld

What libvirt version is this? And what's the exact error message you are seeing?
