Hello @F_oliv :wink:

Looks like this issue: box creation gets stuck on Ubuntu 22.04 (#772) Β· Issues Β· GNOME / GNOME Boxes Β· GitLab Still no fix, but the flatpak version works flawless.

Same problem for me as well, but here is a possible solution:

The reason I say β€œpossible” is I can’t downgrade since I only have the current version in cache, so I don’t know if it will work or not.

Ah I see… thanks for linking it… I tried it and downgrading works.

pamac install downgrade
sudo downgrade --ala-only libvirt libvirt-python

I’m glad that worked out for both of you. I’m sure, in time, there will be an update with a fix for mine.

And, what did I learn from this event?

  • Number of versions of each package to keep: At least 2. :smile:
