What's a few orders of magnitude among friends :) Please post your 'emerge --info' output and then we'll see what the maintainers have to say about this. I think we can assign this one without emerge --info. Please try with virt-manager 0.8.2 and reopen if it's still a problem. This is normal behaviour - http://people.gnome.org/~markmc/qcow-image-format.html The QCOW image format is one of the disk image formats supported by the QEMU processor emulator. It is a representation of a fixed size block device in a file. Benefits it offers over using raw dump representation include: Smaller file size, even on filesystems which don't support holes (i.e. sparse files) |
