Hey all, Just an announcement that app-emulation/qemu-kvm will be pkgmove'd to app-emulation/qemu at some point this week. The app-emulation/qemu ebuilds will effectively die and be replaced by the app-emulation/qemu-kvm ebuilds. I've brought this up before and there was a bunch of rabble about "keep our pristine qemu ebuilds!!!". The fact of the matter is that the app-emulation/qemu just isn't getting the same maintenance care that app-emulation/qemu-kvm is. I've really only got the bandwidth to handle one at a time. Additionally this will bring us inline with a few other distros use of qemu as they're really building their binaries from qemu-kvm.
For those that want pure qemu builds, I recommend creating an overlay and replacing the URL. The ebuilds will otherwise aim to be 100% compatible. -- Doug Goldstein
