Binary package hint: virtinst
libvirt 0.8.3 and later (and the upcoming libvirt update for lucid-security) does not probe qemu disks for the image format and defaults to 'raw' when the format is not specified in the XML. This breaks virt-install --import because it does not allow for specifying a disk format and does not specify a format in the XML.
TEST CASE:
$ virt-install --connect=qemu:///session --name test-import --ram=256 --disk path=<path to existing qemu non-raw image>.qcow2 --import
$ virt-viewer --connect=qemu:///session test-import # shows that disk cannot be found
WORKAROUND:
After importing, use /usr/sbin/libvirt-migrate-qemu-disks |

Binary package hint: virtinst
1. libvirt 0.8.3 and later (and the upcoming libvirt update for lucid-security) does not probe qemu disks for the image format and defaults to 'raw' when the format is not specified in the XML. This breaks virt-install --import because the version in maverick does not allow for specifying a disk format and does not specify a format in the XML.
WORKAROUND:
After importing, use /usr/sbin/libvirt-migrate-qemu-disks
2. this is fixed upstream in 0.500.4, but not in Debian (or Natty)
3. patch fixes this bug by adding/honoring the 'format=' option when specifying a disk. It also updates the testsuite to work with Debian's patches for adjusting the path for Xen (unrelated to this bug, but useful for testing).
4a. TEST CASE (in maverick release):
$ virt-install --connect=qemu:///session --name test-import --ram=256 --disk path=<path to existing qemu non-raw image>.qcow2 --import
$ virt-viewer --connect=qemu:///session test-import # shows that disk cannot be found
4b. TEST CASE (after update to -proposed):
$ virt-install --connect=qemu:///session --name test-import --ram=256 --disk path=<path to existing qemu non-raw image>.qcow2,format=qcow2 --import
$ virt-viewer --connect=qemu:///session test-import # image starts fine
5. Risk of regression is considered low. Patch is not intrusive, adds a test to the test suite for this behavior, comes from upstream, passes the 'python setup.py test' and 'python setup.py test_cli' tests from the testsuite, and has been tested using QRT.
