Bug#479951: RFH: kvm -- Full virtualization on x86 hardware
Jan, I'm trying to reach you for over half a year already
(since about Feb-2009). For some reason you don't reply
to my emails.
I even tried to hijack kvm package sending request to
debian-mentors@, -- not reading the rules, and it was
in any way an attempt to offend you or something like.
Basically, I maintain kvm locally for quite some time
already, http://www.corpit.ru/debian/tls/kvm/ - since
the versions in Debian are quite old and buggy and has
numerous bugs and stability issues.
The package(s) on the given URL are ready to use with
almost complete rewrite of build system (due to the
issues resulting from all the .bin files in original
sources).
I'm doing this because I need working kvm for local
usage anyway (hence I'm forced to maintain it locally),
and because alot of people in #kvm support channel
on freenode asking about issues with kvm in lenny or
in sid, and almost all these issues are fixed long
ago in more recent upstream versions.
Can we please resolve this situation somehow? The
amount of issues people are facing, and the amount
of people who face the issues are quite high, at
least from my expirence in #kvm. The packages are
ready to be uploaded, modulo a few possible issues
which can be discussed. You can take it all or parts,
you can take stuff and incorporate into your versions
or anything - I don't really care as long as it will
finally work.
Thanks!
