  • I had the same problem you need backports enabled in omv-extra>enable backports in omv webUI and it will install fine after that you can disable this afterwards according to the omv-extra kvm plugin notes.

    This did it for me as well, thanks.


    It occurred to me, but I didn't check it because I definitely had backports enabled. I just double-checked and I'm still using a backport kernel, so I'm not sure what may have happened to disable them.

    I released a fix with omv-extras for kvm backports package. Unfortunately when installing the omv-extras fix and the kvm fix together, it doesn't use the omv-extras fix for the kvm packages. enabling backports again allows the omv-extras fix to be in place.
