Have you given any consideration to this as an alternative? If we could avoid the dependency I am wondering if there would be as much need to provide YAF (Yet Another Flag) to turn this feature off.","commit_id":"7ac96c5a98450b5fe13614727141dce37f8632d8"},{"author":{"_account_id":8802,"name":"Vladik Romanovsky","email":"vromanso@redhat.com","username":"vladikr"},"change_message_id":"0104afe5d8534796e83e340318bd5594359274f3","unresolved":false,"context_lines":[{"line_number":300,"context_line":"umbrella of the GNOME project, it does not have any direct requirements for the"},{"line_number":301,"context_line":"graphical desktop infrastructure.

Although, the interface may not be perfect, we can continue improving it in the libosinfo itself.\n\nIn addition, the current implementation of the feature, doesn\u0027t require Nova constantly require gobject module. This is optional, in an absence of the gobject module, nova will continue using the hardware defaults from other sources, not from libosinfo.\nThose who are interested in the feature will install gobject on the host.","commit_id":"7ac96c5a98450b5fe13614727141dce37f8632d8"},{"author":{"_account_id":12898,"name":"Tony Breeds","email":"tony@bakeyournoodle.com","username":"tonyb"},"change_message_id":"ddf1fbd301fc30d523473116a5fb7160a29743c6","unresolved":false,"context_lines":[{"line_number":139,"context_line":"the operating system records.
