Yeah, basically, the upstream QEMU project is working *a lot* on modularizing the code and the build system.
As said by Bruce in the bug report, we're doing the same for our packages. A more modular set of packages, with a much finer grain split of functionalities among packages would be, IMO, something very nice, in the long run.
The flip side is that it makes dependencies tricky, especially during the transition. :-)
This, in fact, happened to others as well:

FWIW, it's bitten other as well (and there's more than just the packages issue, i.e., there's the fact that libvirt caches QEMU capabilities and some more complicated stuff):

This is, again, FYI, in case you would be interested. Point being this modularization is proving challenging and it indeed caused some issues, no matter how hard we tried to avoid that. :-)
That is great to hear. :-)
Okay, this in its entirety was an education! Thank you so much Dario this truly was most wonderful!
And thanks for this. Much appreciated. :-D
You are most welcome! I for one am glad that my first ever bug report turned out to be useful and was actually not only looked at, but replied to. Cheers. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kubic+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kubic+owner@opensuse.org
