KB / Johnny, Douglas is trying to get a package for qemu-kvm into the Virt SIG which has snapshotting enabled. It looks like he wants an exact rebuild of the RH qemu-kvm package with a single additional config option. Original instructions here: http://marc.info/?l=centos-virt&m=140077626420251 They seem keen to get this in sooner rather than later. Is there yet a way for me to create a new package for the Virt SIG that you could brief me on? Alternately, could one of the core CentOS team take a bit of time sometime in the next few weeks to build such a package? I tried to build the qemu-kvm package on git.centos.org, hoping to be able to just give you guys a functional repo you could use, but the c6 branch of the repo on git.centos.org seems to be empty.
