@abitrolly have you installed the Avocado repository? Documentation is here:

No. I think no. I probably tried to install it with pip. Maybe Avocado docs should be updated to mention that Avocado VT can only be used and installed if Avocado itself was installed from custom repo. Mention that repo explicitly could help.

Looks like since Fedora 29, with packages, the recommended way to install the Avocado framework is via modules. I am currently on Fedora 34.

But I agree that it should be noted in the Avocado-VT package-install documentation, which currently only vaguely points towards the Avocado documentation for more installation details. I did not go to it at first because it also says, "you might prefer to use packages from your system’s package manager if available; this way non-python dependencies, esp. Avocado, are also taken care of automatically."

Huh, I am still having trouble finding avocado-plugins-vt or similar through the module.

I am new to the Avocado framework, so this is where I call it quits. I only came to it out of curiosity from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Testing_KVM_with_kvm_autotest.

Hi @KevinWhalen ,

Avocado-VT is on a different module, named avocado-vt. But that is indeed missing in the documentation. Thanks for spotting that.
