- qemu-doc.texi This documentation is used by distributions and can stay installed for ages. I have no idea how often users copy/paste the doc to use it, but at least the documentation urls will stay working. - tests/acceptance/boot_linux_console.py - tests/acceptance/linux_initrd.py These are cached for local user, and with the addition of '.travis.yml: Cache Avocado cache' in this series, these are now also cached on Travis CI. - tests/vm/fedora This one I don't know, you might be right.
