New dependency qemu-desktop is in conflict with qemu-full. Whats wrong with just qemu?

I just wanted to set up a macos monterey and here's the output I'm getting:


$ quickemu --vm macos-monterey.conf
Quickemu 4.3 using /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 v7.1.0

 - MSR:      WARNING! Ignoring unhandled Model-Specific Registers is disabled.

             echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/module/kvm/parameters/ignore_msrs

             If you are unable to run macOS or Windows VMs then run the above 👆
             This will enable ignoring of unhandled MSRs until you reboot the host.
             You can make this change permenant by running: 'quickemu --ignore-msrs-always'

Looks like qemu-ui-sdl is required here. All works fine after installing it.

Thanks @ato2

I hadn't noticed that they had created the man pages. I've included them in the package now.

Dear Maintainer please add manual pages install: + install -Dm644 docs/quickget.1 $pkgdir/usr/share/man/man1/quickget.1 + install -Dm644 docs/quickemu.1 $pkgdir/usr/share/man/man1/quickemu.1 + install -Dm644 docs/quickemu_conf.1 $pkgdir/usr/share/man/man1/quickemu_conf.1

@sgnh, just a big "thank you" for all your immediate updates!! Cheers!

sgnh commented on 2022-08-03 18:05 (UTC)

Thanks, @progandy, and @sekret. I've added it as a dependency now.

sekret commented on 2022-08-03 10:13 (UTC)

Confirmed, without xdg-user-dirs the virtual machine doesn't start. Please add it to the dependencies.

progandy commented on 2022-06-09 13:52 (UTC)

xdg-user-dirs is required for the shared directory support.

sgnh commented on 2022-04-26 11:08 (UTC)

Thanks @sekret I've added aria2 as an optional dependency

sekret commented on 2022-04-22 21:34 (UTC)

If installed quickget uses aria2c for downloading the iso images etc.

So I think it would be correct to add it as an optional dependency.
