Actually it might not be as good as it sounds. qemu-kvm:i386 1.1.2: Installed-Size: 4756 Depends: seabios, vgabios, ipxe qemu-system:i386 1.3.0: Installed-Size: 89232 Depends: seabios, vgabios, ipxe, openbios-ppc, openbios-sparc, openhackware, libxen, ... Just the installed size -- 4756 vs 89232 -- is already quite telling, that's about 20 times difference... Oh well. And I'm still not sure if it's a good idea to split qemu-system into multiple packages. Thanks, /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
