Hi all!

Could you please consider packaging systemd-vmspawn? I know it's very new, but
I'd like to start experimenting with it.

Thanks :)

new, but

It's still considered experimental, and enabled only in dev mode. The
interface will likely change. Will need at least one more release to
stabilize. Should be done in time for Trixie.

Hi,

Can we now consider packaging it? I assume its more stable now and
will be in time for Trixie?

Thanks and Regards,
