[Scratchbox-users] Select CPU-transparency method: big list

[Jussi Hakala]

Alas, you can't just copy your favorite flavor of qemu (or some other 
binary which offers you a cpu transparency method) inside 
/scratchbox/devkits/cputransp/bin and use it.

You'll need either to do some hacking or compile a static version which 
is (in my opinion) no less trouble than adding it to to cputransp 
package and recompiling that.

However, you might want to try defining a custom transparency in the 
environment. See if SBOX_CPUTRANSPARENCY_METHOD will meet your needs.

Regards,
