Thanks, Christophe. An openSUSE update has trashed my Network Manager,
so I'm back to Fedora where I get the same error. I have udev-devel
installed, but running autogen.sh in the gudev folder says I needed
libusb-devel (which I installed). If I install gudev to /opt/gnome
manually, Boxes fails because it would like a newer version than 147.
Any ideas?

Thanks again,

Mike
