New comment by leahneukirchen on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/33728#issuecomment-959840960 Comment: I would like to propose a different solution: Qemu 6 supports `--enable-modules`, which allows splitting Qemu into two dozen packages so you can install exactly what you need (currently an install is over 1GB...). E.g. Alpine does this: https://git.alpinelinux.org/aports/tree/community/qemu/APKBUILD yielding: https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/package/edge/community/x86_64/qemu cc @Hoshpak.
