But it’s probably not a good idea because we have system tests targeting specific kernels, and because users may want to test “actual” kernels in QEMU. > | benchmark | linux-libre | linux-libre-virtual | > |-------------------------|---------------|---------------------| > | guix size | 101.4 MiB | 36.2 MiB | Wo0t! > activation: Firmware activation handles missing support in kernel. > gnu: Add linux-libre-virtual. You may want a better-informed opinion on the linux-libre bits, but otherwise LGTM! Ludo’.
