As part of the preparations for a formal maintenance branch, we're now
providing userspace-only source tarballs and kernel module-only source
tarballs. The combined kernel/userspace package is still provided.
Userspace package names will take the form 'qemu-kvm-devel-xx'.
Kernel module package names will take the form 'kvm-kmod-devel-xx'.
The combined package is named, as usual, kvm-xx'.
When maintenance branch packages become available, -devel will be
dropped, of course. Only the split packages will be available for the
maintenance branch.
The userspace package can run against modules from the matching kernel
module package, or against modules from a released Linux kernel
(version 2.6.25 or higher). In almost all cases, you can mix and
match userspace and kernel -devel packages.
Please test the release candidates in
http://userweb.kernel.org/~avi/kvm-85rc1/ for any packaging errors.
Suggestions of any kind are also welcome.
Hrm, I notice that for qemu-kvm, you basically just pulled out the
module source.
What do you think about going a step further and building a proper qemu
repository?
