homebrew-virt-manager
=====================
Updated/new formulae to build `virt-manager` and `virt-viewer` on Mac OSX.
# Usage
brew tap jeffreywildman/homebrew-virt-manager
brew install virt-manager virt-viewer
# Notes
* For remote URIs, the `libvirt` socket location may need to be overridden to prevent socket hangups, see [www.jedi.be](http://www.jedi.be/blog/2011/09/13/libvirt-fog-provider/#macosx-remote-libvirt-client-).
virt-manager -c qemu+ssh://user@libvirthost/system?socket=/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock
virt-viewer -c qemu+ssh://user@libvirthost/system?socket=/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock
* SSH passwords for connecting to remote URIs are not prompted unless `--debug` or `--no-fork` is used to start `virt-manager`.
