Whenever I try to use the gnome boxes app the create button is always greyed out no matter what settings I change. I looked up the issue and only got results for Ubuntu (https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/comments/149i17q/gnome_boxes_create_button_for_vm_is_greyed_out/) Does anyone have a solution that works for arch?

Did you try what the comments directed the OP to do?
I tried to install the package but its not available with pacman
It may be under a different name
how can I find out if thats the case
Do a package search for the primary part of the package name the commenter listed. In this case, libvirt.
Looks like the package is just libvirt
I have that installed
Then run the sysctl and usermod commands they listed.
I can explain what they do if you need
no its fine
thanks for helping
I just didnt realize that libvirt was the package they were talking about
ok so nothing was fixed but its way too late to keep working on this so ill try and figure it out tomorrow
