Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Using the libvirt-gui does not result in this error.

3.

Actual results:
Fails.

I can confirm this problem on my F32. Exactly the same problem. Proposing as a blocker:
"All applications that can be launched using the standard graphical mechanism after a default installation of Fedora Workstation on the x86_64 architecture must start successfully and withstand a basic functionality test. "
