virt-preview would be an option, if I had ppc64 hardware to do the builds :) > Or maybe these packages should be fixed and published as updates for the > current releases of FC and RHEL? Our policy is not to rebase qemu or libvirt to a new version in stable fedora releases, since the risk of regressions is just too high. And generally there is a new fedora version every 6 months so telling people to wait for new features isn't typically a stretch. No idea about RHEL though. - Cole _______________________________________________ vdsm-devel mailing list vdsm-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/vdsm-devel
