Hi!
I wanted to test how well qemu-linux-user works on openSUSE but I noticed that binfmt handling does not work and I cannot change into a Debian/m68k chroot, for example.
I noticed that systemd-binfmt refuses to start. Does any know what the cause here is before I start digging?

Maybe I'm missing something, but it says that a condition check made systemd skip the unit, and the condition is listed in the status page: Condition: start condition failed at Tue 2021-10-26 00:17:36 CEST; 2s ago ├─ ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=|/lib/binfmt.d was not met ├─ ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=|/usr/lib/binfmt.d was not met ├─ ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=|/usr/local/lib/binfmt.d was not met ├─ ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=|/etc/binfmt.d was not met └─ ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=|/run/binfmt.d was not met Presumably all these directories are empty, so there are no binfmts to set up? You'll likely need this service only for persistent configuration, otherwise you might just as well mount binfmt directly and place your files there. Or maybe qemu-linux-user should install some files to /usr/lib/binfmt.d? (Assuming it doesn't do so already, I didn't check.) Best regards, Aaron
