I second this on another level. While the lxc backend is exercised very often, the qemu backend evidently experiences rare use. The default --ram-size is 1G and that happens to be too little for a number of packages already. This soon will be configurable (#1037245). I expect that there are more aspects where qemu and lxc differ in a way that causes test failures as most of the existing tests only ever ran on lxc. Some of these aspects will have to be fixed in tests, but others (like the --ram-size) will need addressing in infrastructure. Please expect more work in this area. Helmut
