Older libvirt had a bug where it wouldn't parse qemu 1.0 version (the
change from 3 digits to 2 confused the older libvirt). If you're going
to go with self-built qemu, you might also want to try self-built
libvirt 0.9.10.

I installed libvirt 0.9.10 from source and now virsh is not finding the following:

testa@testaT4:~$ virsh list
virsh: /usr/lib/libvirt-qemu.so.0: version `LIBVIRT_QEMU_0.9.4' not found (required by virsh)
virsh: /usr/lib/libvirt.so.0: version `LIBVIRT_0.9.10' not found (required by virsh)

virsh: /usr/lib/libvirt.so.0: version `LIBVIRT_0.9.4' not found (required by virsh)

I can't install qemu 1.0 and libvirt 0.9.10 through apt right? I assume I had to get them from source. Anyways, please let me know how I can get virsh to see that I have 0.9.10. Once I get this working and can run that monitor command I will be in good shape.

Thanks!
