[virt-tools-list] 'module' object has no attribute '__version__'

[James Clement]

I recently tried to install virt-manager on RHEL 6.5 and I get the
following error when trying to start virt-manager

Here is the debug output:

[root at al11 python2.6]# virt-manager --debug
2014-02-14 13:44:32,521 (cli:71): virt-manager startup

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '__version__'
2014-02-14 13:44:32,549 (virt-manager:390): 'module' object has no
attribute '__version__'

virt-manager requires the python-virtinst library version 0.600.1 or
greater. This can be downloaded at:

virt-manager requires the python-virtinst library version 0.600.1 or
greater. This can be downloaded at:


According to Python, I have 0.600.4 installed:

[root at al11 python2.6]# python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Nov 21 2013, 10:50:32)
[GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-4)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import virtinst
>>> print virtinst.__version__
0.600.4
>>>

I am using 0.9.1 of virt-manager

[root at al11 python2.6]# virt-manager --version
0.9.1


I am stumped. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
