I know qemu and virt manager but not gentoo lol
seems wrong placement of files

sleek whale
seems wrong placement of files
What should I try?

did you install qemu and enable libvirtd.service?
actually idk if you have systemd because you're on gentoo, so do you have systemd? lol
you can test it with virsh -c qemu:///system

sleek whale
you can test it with `virsh -c qemu:///system`
Same error.

try virsh -c qemu:///session to test user level
i think your libvert daemon is not working or not connected to qemu somehow
sorry, if you were on arch I could help more, but idk anything about gentoo

usually logging in openrc is defined in output_log, error_log, output_logger, error_logger variables in the init scripts, or conf.d, and in this case none of them are set

brave coral
one thing you can do to reset all config files is use emerge option --oneshot and --noconfmem
--oneshot just allows you to re-emerge dependencies without adding it to your world file , and --noconfmem makes it ignore rules about preserving config files
you will still need to apply them with dispatch-conf afterwards though
gray bone
wait
was the failed to parse error b4 we changed qemu.conf back or after
brave coral
this is why I use FEATURES=buildpkg
because if I need to reemerge something without any use flag changes it's already a binary package on my disk
gray bone
did it work?

oh this might explain why those config files got changed

if caps is enabled qemu, else root
