Libvirt's "domcapabilities" command has a way to state

certain graphic frontends are available in QEMU or not. Originally,
libvirt looked at the "--help" output of the QEMU binary to determine
whether SDL was available or not (by looking for the "-sdl" parameter
in the help text), but since libvirt stopped doing this analysis of
the help text, the detection of SDL is currently broken, see:

QEMU should provide a way via the QMP interface instead. The simplest
way, without introducing additional commands, is to make the DisplayType
enum entries conditional, so that the enum only contains the entries if
the corresponding CONFIG_xxx switches have been set.
Hmm, that'll break for the "dnf remove qemu-ui-sdl" case ...
take care,
