 From 7.0.0-rc2 to what I've done (after installing a bunch of optional
libraries) there were no noticeable differences really. Just a change
in the minor version to the release version. I can send it if we really
want the caps to be always capped to the official release.


I'll end up updating in the middle of the 7.1 cycle again for the powernv
support (as soon as I push more QEMU changes).

I used a recently installed P9 host that didn't had much on it. Lesson
learned :D
