cat /etc/debian_version and check that it's still 11.2

uname -a should give you something like:

Linux [machine name]  5.10.0-11-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.92-1 (2022-01-18) x86_64 GNU/Linux

(just to check that you've not inadvertently upgraded to testing by accident/
mistake).

That's a backports version you have quoted: have you _ever_ installed anything
from backports?

On this system, 

dpkg -l libvirt-clients gives:

Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name            Version      Architecture Description
+++-===============-============-============-=================================
ii  libvirt-clients 7.0.0-3      amd64        Programs for the libvirt library

Check the versions then come back with the info for the list to check?

All the very best, as ever,
