Hi,

I installed virtnbdbackup on our backup storage server (without kvm) on Debian 13 with apt install virtnbdbackup --no-install-recommends and tried to restore a VM.

Unfortunately this doesn't work because the missing libvirt-sock.
Is this a bug or do I miss a restore option? Or technical not possible without kvm?

Thanks.
