I updated my Ubuntu 24.04 system to the latest version using apt upgrade. Following the update, I can now run virt-customize as a non-root user with passt, resolving the previous permission issue. However, I am still encountering the original issue I faced with libslirp and now with passt: the network interfaces inside the libguestfs appliance are not being assigned IP addresses. I have attached the new logs for your review. Thank you for your time and assistance. /# dpkg -l | grep passt/ ii  passt 0.0~git20240220.1e6f92b-1                  amd64        user-mode networking daemons for virtual machines and namespaces /# sudo -u amd virt-customize -v -x -a /home/amd/noble-server-cloudimg-amd64.qcow2 --install isc-dhcp-client/ .. libguestfs: command: run: passt --help Usage: passt [OPTION]...   -d, --debug\t\tBe verbose       --trace\t\tBe extra verbose, implies --debug .. .. libguestfs: command: run: passt libguestfs: command: run: \ --one-off libguestfs: command: run: \ --socket /tmp/libguestfsTs3w5r/passt.sock libguestfs: command: run: \ --pid /tmp/libguestfsTs3w5r/passt1.pid libguestfs: command: run: \ --address 169.254.2.15 libguestfs: command: run: \ --netmask 16 libguestfs: command: run: \ --mac-addr 52:56:00:00:00:02 libguestfs: command: run: \ --gateway 169.254.2.2 No routable interface for IPv6: IPv6 is disabled Template interface: enp97s0 (IPv4) MAC:     host: 52:56:00:00:00:02 DHCP:     assign: 169.254.2.15     mask: 255.255.0.0     router: 169.254.2.2 DNS:     169.254.2.2 DNS search list:     amd.com UNIX domain socket bound at /tmp/libguestfsTs3w5r/passt.sock
