Two PRs landed on main.

• Fedora and Azure Linux package ownership drift fixed for the shared Avahi family. Avahi stays on Fedora across the live image, installer, canary repo asset, and installed-system repo rewrite. Host verification: sudo dnf update -y completes with Nothing to do. Drop bochs_drm from early KMS, add qxl and vmwgfx #37

• Early KMS was asking dracut for bochs_drm, which Azure Linux x86_64 does not build. Removed it, added qxl and vmwgfx for QEMU QXL and VMware/VirtualBox graphics, and made every ISO and disk-image validator check virtio_gpu, hyperv_drm, qxl, and vmwgfx while rejecting bochs. Drop bochs_drm from early KMS, add qxl and vmwgfx #37

• The RPM survey found one broken dependency in 1,473 installed RPMs, with Flatpaks counted separately. Fedora perl-Socket required perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.42.3) while the Azure Linux Perl runtime provides 5.42.2. Kept perl-Socket on Azure Linux across the live, installer, installed-system, and canary repo policy. Copilot also found two validation gaps, which are fixed: installer virtio_gpu is checked and the duplicate qcow2 hyperv_drm check is gone. Fix review checks and Perl package policy #38
