[21:13] <aliguori> http://paste.ubuntu.com/577177/ <- is carried for libvirt and is pretty evil
[21:13] <aliguori> you can set VIRSH_DEFAULT_CONNECT_URI to achieve the same goal
[21:13] <aliguori> which would be a bit more discoverable
[23:00] <soren> aliguori: The logic is that if you've been granted access to the system-wide libvirt, that's likely the one you want to use.
[23:01] <soren> aliguori: It does tell you that it's connecting to qemu:///system instaed of qemu:///session.
[23:01] <soren> Oh.
[23:01] <soren> It used to.
[23:01] <aliguori> soren, yup, but seting an environmental way to do this :-)
[23:02] <soren> I just found it a pointless hoop to jump through, but to avoid confusion, the patch used to make virsh echo that it was connecting to qemu:///system.
[23:02] <soren> I'm not sure where that got lost.
[23:02] <soren> aliguori: The same logic was added to virt-viewer and virt-manager to be consistent.
[23:13] <aliguori> soren, there's an environmental variable, LIBVIRT_DEFAULT_CONNECTION or something like that you could set in /etc/profile that would have the same effect
[23:14] <aliguori> i ran into this because my python script didn't behave like virsh, which confused the heck out of me :-)
[23:14] <aliguori> if you set that variable, my python script would behave like virsh too
