Thanks a lot for your contribution!

Do you have an example on how to use this in the context of Buildroot?

First, your patch was missing lots of dependencies: python-netaddr,
python-netifaces, python-simplejson, and one more I can't remember.

Then, I tried to follow
https://avocado-vt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/GetStartedGuide.html by
running "avocado vt-bootstrap --vt-type qemu" on the target, but this
checks if gcc is installed on the target, which obviously fails because
we don't support installing a compiler on the target.

Could you show a simple example of using avocado-vt in the context of
Buildroot? Ideally, a runtime test in support/testing/ would be useful.
See support/testing/tests/package/test_avocado.py for an example test
case I have added for avocado itself.

Best regards,

Thomas
