Hey all, |
| 2 |

Just an announcement that app-emulation/qemu-kvm will be pkgmove'd to |
| 4 |
app-emulation/qemu at some point this week. The app-emulation/qemu |
| 5 |
ebuilds will effectively die and be replaced by the |
| 6 |
app-emulation/qemu-kvm ebuilds. I've brought this up before and there |
| 7 |
was a bunch of rabble about "keep our pristine qemu ebuilds!!!". The |
| 8 |
fact of the matter is that the app-emulation/qemu just isn't getting |
| 9 |
the same maintenance care that app-emulation/qemu-kvm is. I've really |
| 10 |
only got the bandwidth to handle one at a time. Additionally this will |
| 11 |
bring us inline with a few other distros use of qemu as they're really |
| 12 |
building their binaries from qemu-kvm. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
For those that want pure qemu builds, I recommend creating an overlay |
| 15 |
and replacing the URL. The ebuilds will otherwise aim to be 100% |
| 16 |
compatible. |
