right.

We'll keep it as optional.

But isn't this just a timing issue for the failure ? Or are we missing a
dependency in meta-virt on where this landed in meta-oe ? We definitely
have meta-oe dependencies in meta-virt, so the AB should already have those
in place .. so this must have only blown up because it hasn't landed in
meta-oe yet (nor should it probably have, as this is a test of the removal
in OEcore) .

Either way, I'll merge the meta-virt, make-it-optional patch shortly and
this should be good to go.
