Martin, All,

So, I see that K9mail put the saultations at the end of the mail, which
is quite odd... Anyway, let me expand further on my previous reply...

So, the reasoning is that, since we use a pinned version of the
repository, running "pacman -Sy --noconfirm" will always yield the same
state of the distribution.

Now, it happens that we need to add a new package to the image, e.g. for
local testing. We can thus re-use the intermediate, locally-cached image
that has the local repository updated.

It kinda speeds up things a bit.

Ah, that one is interesting to know! :-)

However, are we sure that we don;t need the headed version of qemu?

And why do we even have to have qemu in the image to start with, in the
end?
