Sorry if this happened, it was not intended.

The intention was to point out that there are also other use cases of running 
the QEMU builds, different from those specific to building Linux distribution 
packages.

Given the large number of libraries and tools that the xPack Build Box workflow 
supports, it is no surprise that it accepts both out of tree and in tree builds.

Just that for a large project like QEMU, since I usually run a multi-platform 
build at once, having multiple copies of QEMU in each platform build folder 
would be less space efficient than having a single copy in the folder with 
common sources.


Apart from this, I actually don't mind, you can choose whatever solution you 
want, I guess I can accommodate it somehow.
