The RPM error reporting sucks, but root cause was a spec issue in
virt-manager. We switched to using fedora gconf macros in the spec,
which needed a BuildRequires: GConf2 that I didn't add. Rawhide has
updated builds, pushing f16 builds today.

If people are having trouble downgrading to old virt-manager, make sure
you 'yum remove virt-manager\*' , since f16/rawhide virt-manager package
has been split into 3 parts: virt-manager, virt-manager-common,
virt-manager-tui.

Sorry for the breakage!
