having easy access to srpm should be a must, this help us users help

I for example would like to find out why 9p driver is not included in qemu -
first thing I do is take a look at rpm source - and with oVirt I have to
fiddle around, and it could have (should) been made easier for the users.
My vote would go - devel, please just put it in repo rpm(s).
Please open a bug against product "ovirt-distribution". Thanks.
Please also note that qemu, and specifically qemu-kvm-ev, is not an
oVirt project. There is a jenkins job [1][2][3] downloading the SRPM
from
redhat.com and building it with minimal re-branding.
In the past, oVirt relied on the qemu package shipped as part of the
OS - CentOS or Fedora. See e.g. [4].
