Upgraded yesterday. Repos seem to be missing the Virtual Machine Manager; is there any ETA for it to be added?

I am sorry, the project is not maintained anymore so it has been removed, you may use the desktop client virt-manager instead.

Shame, virt-manager isn’t really an option as we don’t run any Linux desktops, and the macOS homebrew port is broken to say the least
