Kimchi not working - error: No module named 'libvirt'

[Gardinero]

After installing wok and kimchi from source, I get the following message in my wok-error.log:

Failed to import plugin wok.plugins.kimchi.Kimchi, error: Class wok.plugins.kimchi.Kimchi can not be imported, error: No module named 'libvirt'

I do see the plugin under the settings tab as activated.

Anybody an idea?

In systemd I have have libvirt-bin, libvirtd and libvirt-guests, which all are active.

You need to install the libvirt python module. You can do this with

pip install libvirt-python

Or use the package manager of your system.

I noticed the docs were wrongly listing Wok dependencies as Kimchi dependencies and python3-libvirt was missing. The docs were updated and I hope that fix this issue.

Please, reopen it if needed.

Hi, i'm stuck this one here (after having passed through the missing libvirt):

I tried to install wok with: pip3 install wok

but i got:

You said your package doesn't require wok but here seems the opposite... any ideas?

Thanks a lot!
