Hi, i cant reproduce that. Just tested the installer on fresh ubuntu 24.04 desktop machine.

1. wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kevoreilly/CAPEv2/refs/heads/master/installer/kvm-qemu.sh
2. chmod +x kvm-qemu.sh
3. Replace <WOOT> in kvm-qemu.sh
4. as cape-user: sudo ./kvm-qemu.sh all | tee kvm-qemu.log

kvm-qemu.sh log:

Maybe u can check if /tmp/libvirt-11.1.0/subprojects/keycodemapdb/tools/keymap-gen is missing somhow
