virt-manager says: Unable to connect to libvirt qemu:///system ?

configure KVM etc as usual, e.g.
 apk add dbus && rc-update add dbus && rc-service dbus start && rc-status

but also
 apk add polkit

allow user shutdown or reboot in DE gui?

small installation, e.g.

vi /etc/apk/repositories
setup-xorg-base

apk add arandr faenza-icon-theme-firefox faenza-icon-theme-gvim firefox geany gvim kbd lsblk pciutils plocate python-pip python-pip3 python3-pip setxkbmap xf86-input-keyboard xf86-input-libinput xf86-input-mouse xf86-video-qxl xfce4 xfce4-terminal lightdm-gtk-greeter dbus

rc-service dbus start
rc-update add dbus
setup-devd udev
rc-service lightdm start
rc-update add lightdm
updatedb
apk -U upgrade
