Thus I don't think we need to care to check them. ie if they work, everything is fine, if they don't work that they're unsupported targets for libvirt. > then I can safely say: > > Reviewed-by: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan@xxxxxxxxxx> Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :| -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
