It is trivial for QEMU maintainers to fix Meanwhile, I'm not opposed to these patches. It may be a trivial fix for distro packagers, but not so obvious for people building qemu from scratch. However, I have to wonder if src/util/util.c:virParseVersionString needs to be taught to handle comma, and also whether qemuCapsParseHelpStr should reuse virParseVersionString rather than open-coding its own parser. -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
