All virtualization is dead until one spots this on (I spend half an hour on my box virtualizing my firewall - i.e. no internet)
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Reporting_Bug_Guidelines
In the wiki:
* High - The main functionality of the application does not work, less critical security issues, etc.
vs.
* Low - An optional functionality (plugin or compilation activated) does not work.
A headless virtualizer not able to start its VMs is pretty ugly don't you think. So qemu is not usable at all, so broken == High?
Yes the fix is easy: pacman -S libepoxy;
But also the fix in the PKBUILD (fixed one line, find it attached) is not that hard, so please do it asap before more people got bit by it;-)
Thx, tpowa!
http://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.4
so also needed as makedependency fixed PKGBUILD attached.
I also don't agree to "Severity Low" - this is a bug which stops the application from working!
When was that bug even introduced? Since last pacman update I got this, but qemu was not updated there - what happened?
Since it is an simple fix why hasn't it been fixed.
