Description Łukasz Mierzwa 2009-04-28 19:11:32 UTC

sys-apps/pciutils provides libpci which is used by kvm for device assignment capability.
When emerging kvm without sys-apps/pciutils installed this warning is printed:

>>> Source prepared.                                                                                                                                                                                           
>>> Configuring source in /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/kvm-85-r1/work/qemu-kvm-devel-85 ...                                                                                                                  

Error: libpci check failed
Disable KVM Device Assignment capability.


Reproducible: Always
