[Bug 1529079] Re: Can't start virtual machines with installed systemd-container package on Xenial

[Andrew Cooks]

I tried the fix suggested in #40, but couldn't get it to work.

I really need both systemd-container and libvirt to work.

Title:
  Can't start virtual machines with installed systemd-container package
  on Xenial

Status in libvirt package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Can't start virtual machines after upgrade to Xenial.

  On Ubuntu Server 16.04:
  # virsh start testserver
  Cannot set property Before, or unknown property.

  On Kubuntu 16.04:
  Cannot set property Before, or unknown property.

  libvirtError: Cannot set property Before, or unknown property.

  At this moment there is no libvirt or systemd-related error messages in syslog when this error appear on the screen (or virsh output). Both systems was upgraded from 15.10.
