Bundle `qemu-kvm` in the snap

Open SaladinAyyub opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

For android studio virtual device we need qemu-kvm dependency (plugin in snap language) otherwise virtual device will run much slower. You can provide it bundled inside snap maybe.

Workaround

You currently have to install qemu-kvm yourself on your host system. The snap will then use that QEMU version. This is just like the regular android-studio install. Here are some resources that can help you with this:
