libvirt has a modularized packaging split. libvirt-daemon-driver-storage pulls in every possible storage driver + lib that libvirt can use. Or you can install libvirt-daemon-driver-storage-XXX individual sub packages to get only the bits your app will use. gnome-boxes which is in the default workstation package set has a dep on libvirt-daemon-kvm which is itself a metapackage which pulls in libvirt-daemon-driver-storage. gnome-boxes dep could be made more granular, it uses libvirt storage APIs but I think only libvirt-daemon-driver-storage-file - Cole _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
