Uhm, well, it isn't (any more): [root@rhel6 ~]# rpm -q pixman pixman-0.26.2-5.1.el6_5.x86_64 Seems to be rebased somewhen (used to be 0.16 for RHEL-6.0 IIRC).

I'd much prefer to raise the minimum pixman version and ditch the #ifdefs. The common kvm case will work fine without RGBA, you may run into trouble though when emulating bigendian guests on a little endian host (or visa versa), because pixman will have to deal with uncommon pixel formats then. cheers, Gerd
