Public bug reported: Currently 14.04 has qemu 1.7.0+dfsg-3ubuntu4, which had 234 patches. Many of those are for enabling aarch64, most will be in 2.0.
Qemu 2.0 is scheduled to be released on April 4 (http://wiki.qemu.org/Planning/2.0). I will begin doing regular package building/testing before release. If that testing goes well, I would like 2.0 to be considered for a late pull into 14.04. We will be supporting this package for 5 years; therefore I would prefer a 2.0 with very few patches on top, to a 1.7 with hundreds of patches, as a starting point. ** Affects: qemu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1284793 Title: [FFE] Merge qemu 2.0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1284793/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
