There's no matter of urgency for these patches, they're just a bit of user-friendly stuff. As such, if you're fine with stacking them on top of what you already have for 6.3, that will be great, otherwise they can easily wait.
Thank you! Willy
Nice, thank you!
I have these placed on top of the -rcu "dev" branch initially for further review and testing. If things go well over the next week or so, I will set it up for the upcoming merge window.
Thanks!
One dependency is of course qemu-x86_64, so in the meantime I will figure out where I get that from. ;-)
I build it from time to time from the sources, it's not that long and normally doesn't reserve me any surprises. But if you have it for other platforms it's likely that you have it for most platforms as well, including this one.
And building from sources proved to be reasonably easy, so the test now passes for me. My initial thought of putting qemu-x86_64 into my ~/bin directory fails the sudo test, but putting it into /usr/bin works fine.
Thank you for the hints!
Should I add a sentence to the commit log noting the potential need to build qemu from the git repo and to install qemu-x86_64, give or take what architecture one is running?
Thanx, Paul
