virbr0 interface didn't exist for me causing virsh errors. It's fairly simple to active this interface:

sudo virsh net-define /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml
sudo virsh net-start default

Info: dnsmasq must be installed for this to successfully activate.

Libvirt docs say the xml is located at /usr/share/libvirt/networks/default.xml but mine was at /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml (arch).

Maybe add it to the readme or ask the user if he wants to automatically active the bridge.

good suggestion. i could add a check at the start of new VMs to see if the interface is up and if not ask and start.

virsh --connect qemu:///system net-start --network default

should be enough to start if your user is in the libvirt group. if not sudo is needed.

next release will check if default bridge is present and offer to create one.
