Setting up my first Arch server strictly for KVM VMs only, I was surprised at the large amount of dependencies for KVM.
alsa? flac? wayland?!?!
This is a server. Or, is there a reason these are needed for Windows hosts or something?
Is there a minimal KVM install available, for CLI only?
$ sudo pacman -S qemu

you need to compile the package without gui dependencies, or
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qemu-minimal/

Thank you!
That looks like exactly what i was looking for.
^- so says me, after I install the qemu cluster of things from pacman just a few hours ago before reading this. Argh!
