Re: Effectively force all GNOME users to locally compile ZFS?

[Tobias Geerinckx-Rice]

Hi Mark,

‘Force’ is a poor choice of word, both factually and rhetorically.

To me (a non-GNOME user), this is the problem.  GNOME Boxes is a 
wonderful front-end for creating and running virtual machines 
using libvirt.  Why is it installed by default for every GNOME 
desktop user?

Conversely, it would be unfortunate to leave libvirt users with a 
less useful package because of that.

How about moving libvirt_storage_backend_zfs.so to a separate 
output?  Fortunately libvirt appears to be modularly 
well-designed, although I haven't tried myself.

Kind regards,

T G-R
