Networking doesn't work out of the box in Virt-Manager on Bazzite
I'm trying to get a VM running using an existing .qcow2 image in Virtual Machine Manager (Flatpak version) on Bazzite, and I'm running into endless permission and configuration issues — particularly with networking.
The default network isn't active, and trying to start it gives permission errors like:
cannot create directory /var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq: Permission denied
This seems like something that should work out of the box. I'm not trying to do anything fancy — just basic NAT so the VM can access the internet.

I also have ran into issues with this. Following.

Same issue in my side
I managed to get fixed using the following commands: https://universal-blue.discourse.group/t/aurora-dx-qemu-error/1648/4 (Just the firts 2 commands)
Universal Blue
Aurora-dx QEMU Error
This command (from here) seems to help: sudo restorecon -rv /var/lib/libvirt in the further process, these commands needed to be executed as well (see here): sudo restorecon -rv /var/log/libvirt/ systemctl restart swtpm-workaround.service
oh boy more stuff to add to the ujust, why does the selinux labels crap themselves for libvirt 😭
once this builds @EternalChampions, rebase to testing with
brh rebase testing then reboot and re-run the ujust setup-virtualization and enable virtualization again.
