      Goal

      Stop delivering virtctl in rpm form

      User Stories

      • As a VM owner I am used to download virtctl binary from my cluster. RHEL8 has it delivered via dnf install kubevirt-virtctl, but I don't care about it
      • As a CNV developer I spend way too much effort building, testing and delivering virtctl.rpm, with little value to customers. We do this only for RHEL8; let us harmonize and stop building it.

      Non-Requirements

      • List of things not included in this epic, to alleviate any doubt raised during the grooming process.
