Great to see this in -current!

However, if you try to use user-mode networking (-nic user) for basic VM internet access and port forwarding, you’ll run into:

"network backend 'user' is not compiled into this binary"
It looks like libslirp isn’t included in the build. I had to recompile QEMU with --enable-slirp to get it working.

Hopefully Patrick will consider adding libslirp alongside vde2, dtc, and virglrenderer in the future.

@r1w1s1 yeah I did think the choices were a bit off with that missing and saw users already rebuilding their own to add things. Hopefully it’s addressed before long. It’d be great if it were more user-friendly in that area out of the box!
