I have locally rebased wip-hurd-vm and wip-disk-image (working title for
wip-hurd-vm minus vm-image support) on it: it looks nice and works for
me building a disk-impage.
Building a vm-image still needs quite some work: I tried building a
vm-image without hurd-specific vm-image patches (bisecting a bit:
register-closures/grub/qemu-image preserve-target stuff)...but in the
end I still needed all these
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
0547e4c251 * wip-hurd-vm system: vm: Activate the Hurd.
8c28ab91a5 * system: vm: Initial vm-image support for the Hurd.
d9b84d03bc * system: vm: Add defaults for the Hurd.
29281d053f * system: vm: Build vm-image using native qemu, for the Hurd.
86edea90c4 * system: vm: Do not register-closures when cross-building to the Hurd.
a29437ad82 * utils: Move 'reset-timestamps' out of database.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
(especially the "using native qemu" patch was greatly reduced now)
as well as --no-grafts to get a vm-image.
So..as discussed on IRC yesterday I'm voting to drop/pause the vm-image
work for the Hurd and reset wip-hurd-vm to my current gitlab
wip-hurd-disk (or possibly push wip-hurd-disk...) WDYT?

I agree...although as noted above: how much effort do we want to put in
for the Hurd?
Greetings,
