+QEMU does not express a dependency on perl-Test-Harness
+
+This is a minor thing; in Fedora you can install most of the developer dependencies by issuing something like `dnf builddep qemu-kvm` and this takes care of just about everything such that you can run ./configure and make.
+
+For "make check" though, configure doesn't catch that you'll need perl-Test-Harness; so it fails halfway through the check routine, and you'll see this:
+
+```
+Can't locate TAP/Parser.pm in @INC (you may need to install the TAP::Parser module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5) at ./scripts/tap-driver.pl line 30.
+BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./scripts/tap-driver.pl line 30.
+make: *** [/home/jhuston/src/qemu/tests/Makefile.include:905: check-unit] Error 2
+```
+
+I'm not sure how we should express this dependency; it shouldn't be a requirement for building, but it IS a dependency for testing. We probably ought not let users skip the qapi tests just because they don't have the perl requirement met.
+
+(And, separately, the Fedora package should list this as a builddep, but that's not an issue for here.)
