Tools like dpkg set the mtime to the time the package was built at not the installation time so we might end up updating qemu but still having an mtime older than the time the xml was created (same holds for downgrades to older qemu versions) or are we simply requiring distributors to clean the cache upon package upgrades (which would mandate using a trigger)?
