Could you please start building these?
Yes, I did quite some work for it to be packaged properly. Upstream version was not quite ready for that, using many of qemu internals in a dirty way, now it is self-contained, but not in current 2.1 version still -- 2.2 will have it all in a good shape. See, for example, these: http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commitdiff;h=2a0c46da967e5dc8cfe73b1b6fe7a1600c04f461 http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commitdiff;h=fd25c0e6dd1ed2aa932fa7ef814b32457bf270fd and especially http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commitdiff;h=ae9b65e873ac189154429a2488add46c33bfe651 But I'm curious -- what do you want it for? I thought it is quite qemu-specific, is it useful outside of qemu too? I don't really know what this stuff is and what it is for, so if you can, please clarify -- your opinion is important for me, from someone who didn't actually write that code ;) > On Fedora they have added a libcacard, a libcacard-dev and also a > libcacard-tools package which ship a vscclient executable. Yeah. Quite dirty at that, as well.. ;) Is vscclient useful too? Should we package it separately? Thanks, /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
