Thanks for your attention.   I have gone as far forward upgrading qemu and libvirt packages without going beyond stable+backports.   I believe it is now a waiting game for Debian Buster backports to catch up with the release of newer versions that work with QEMU 5.0.0.
 
If you have any more suggestions they will be appreciated.   And sorry for the HTML on the email.   I'm not using an email client, just my email provider's website.  I'll install Thunderbird or Evolution to avoid this in the future.
 
Best regards
 
Pedro

I think your libvirt is too old; my reckoning is it went in v6.1.0 (or
was it 6.2.0?)
