HELP! Libvirt-bin missing. Any one have the code to get the repository?
I'm a newbie and as good as linux is at getting better at helping newbies. It is still too technical for the average windows user. I spent over 6 hours trying to find something telling me how to do it and lucked out.
Telling me to go look at the help page in Ubuntu, isn't exactly helpful when for someone not technical it is too vague in what I exactly have to do. I have no clue what I'm doing. I need to be shown step for step or I can't do it. Been told go look over there and then have to figure out what is needed there and how to get it, just doesn't work :-(
Tried virtual box instead, which I at least could launch, but there too ran into issues of not been able to get it to see my usb or anything on my home network, so couldn't connect to my scanner/printer. Gave up on that after 4 hours of fighting with it.
Pop OS solved the issue of getting my graphics card to work. But now this is my last hurdal to ditch windows as my main pc. And duel booting just to use the scanner is a major pain in the neck. But I need the ablity to change my settings and my printer/scanner is too old even for linux.

I would really appreciate you brother, if you could help me about this real problem. I am a new in bug bounty hunting zone n for this I need to use both Linux n Windows 10 because some Windows based softwares don't work at all in Linux like Acunetix Net Sparker etc...because they need Dot Net Repositories Windows DLLs Registry registration etc...all typical Dot Net platform REQUIREMENTS...Inshort I wanna use Linux n Windows on same single pc on same single screen... I tried Oracle Vmware Gnome Boxes but all SUCKS as they Consume too much RAM CPU resources....
Yes in MacOs we have parallel OS software to run linux Windows simultaneously on MacOs on the same pc on same screen with minimum RAM CPU resources....Hope I made my question very clear to get REAL Solution...
Love n Respect for you brothers

I am having an issue on ubuntu lts 18.04 where if I run the boxes as a non-root user it gives me a -(gnome-boxes:7208): Libvirt.GObject-CRITICAL --: 20:58:53.656: gvir_storage_vol_get_info: assertion 'GVIR_IS_STORAGE_VOL(vol)' failed
Segmentation fault (core dumped)- error. I have confirmed that I am part of the kvm group and that qemu config was changed to allow users in the kvm group to interface with it. Also confirmed that libvirtd is running. I can use virt-manager without sudo and it works fine but gnome-boxes freaks out for some reason. Anyone have any ideas?

Watching this video, I have come to understand why some users might be afraid of command line. Some commands are just so overly convoluted and incomprehensible. For instance: amongst the commands in this video, there is a sed command, which I found to not only be unnecessary, but also error-prone; you could have just open an editor to edit /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf instead.

Curious what you think of the current politics going on with AMD and Intel. It's almost looking like part of the world is planning to leap to ARM architecture asap. It turns political really quick when one has to decide which political model is ultimately supplying your core technology. AMD?>

Package libvirt-bin is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'libvirt-bin' has no installation candidate
I got this error

I'm running Manjaro and just installed Boxes through the software centre. It was easy to install through the software centre and no command lines. I'm finding Boxes so much simpler to create virtual machines than other VM's like Virtual Box.
