ah...ok sorry for the confusion.. too many virt* things ;-)

BTW it is working like a charm at the moment without any complaint.
Even the encrypted /home I have inside the guest that has
/dev/mapper/luks-4b0a873a-72bf-4153-b188-65ee9a6449f1
as first field of /etc/fstab
I'm going to do some testing.
Thank you very much in the mean time
Any problems with the disk config when managing any other parameter in
virt-manager for this vm, such as adding a network card or other
things?

For the note, after starting the domain, the <disk> and <controller>
blocks has been changed this way:

    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2'/>
      <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/f17.img'/>
      <target dev='sda' bus='scsi'/>
      <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
    </disk>

    <controller type='scsi' index='0' model='virtio-scsi'>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x06'
function='0x0'/>
    </controller>
