tonby and I try to make the devstack plugin "additional package repos"
(apr) work [1]. What you did is within the scope of that project. We
also have an experimental job "gate-tempest-dsvm-nova-libvirt-kvm-apr"[2].
The last time I worked on this I wasn't able to create installable *.deb
packages from libvirt + qemu source code. Other work items did then get
more important and I had to pause the work on that.
I think we can work together to combine our efforts there.
