This breaks running "make check-avocado" for ppc targets if the host system doesn't have 'xorriso': (177/300) tests/avocado/ppc_hv_tests.py:HypervisorTest.test_hv_pseries: ERROR: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'xorriso' (0.14 s) Missing prerequisites should trigger the test to SKIP, not ERROR. Bug filed with the avocado logfile details etc: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2246 thanks -- PMM
