$ cat /usr/bin/virt-manager
#!/bin/sh

exec python "/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py" "$@"

It is a stock F15.
At the end of July I attempted to apply virt-preview a first time, but
 I had some problems
(see also

)

So at enable time I had this in yum.log

then after some problems I reverted to stock F15 at that time using
rpm --force  on the f15 re-downloaded rpm packages
then I used without problems until yesterday, applying also f15
updates and in particular
Sep 09 15:15:53 Updated: virt-manager-0.8.7-6.fc15.noarch

btw: my GConf2 version is
GConf2-2.32.3-1.fc15.x86 64

Let me know if you wish I run gdb against python of virt-manager (and
how to do it eventually...)
