[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

running on Oneiric, connecting to machines running Natty. On these
machines, the libvirt/qemu versions are as follows:

ii  libvirt-bin                                                               0.8.8-1ubuntu6.5
ii  libvirt0                                                                  0.8.8-1ubuntu6.5
un  qemu                                                                      <none>
ii  qemu-common                                                               0.14.0+noroms-0ubuntu4.4
ii  qemu-kvm                                                                  0.14.0+noroms-0ubuntu4.4cerdea at aldebaran:/usr/share$

When trying to connect I get a pop-up with the following error:

Unable to open a connection to the libvirt management daemon.

Libvirt URI is: qemu+ssh://cerdea@aldebaran/system

Verify that:
 - The 'libvirt-bin' package is installed
