Public bug reported: We'd usually go for 10.0 as that released in time for the .10 Ubuntu release. But this time we aim for so many functional backports that landed later to come to the conclusion that backporting 40 + 80 patches is a higher risk of regression than aiming for 10.1 which releases upstream around feature freeze.
Dates are usually pretty reliable, see https://wiki.qemu.org/Planning/10.1 The intention is to merge and test qemu 10.1-rc1 before the 25.10 feature freeze and then later on update it to the final version which is a day or a week after feature freeze (not too later IMHO). If all goes to plan we'd have 10.1-rc* in questing before the freeze, but you never know of the challenges that come up, if it slips another week or two we'll make this bug an FFE with what we have by that time. Testing will be as usual: the autopkgtests, then the qemu regression tests suite which is based what failed us in the past finally wide coverage by the fact that this stack is used heavily in all kinds of other testing throughout Ubuntu. ** Affects: qemu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: needs-merge upgrade-software-version ** Tags added: needs-merge upgrade-software-version ** Changed in: qemu (Ubuntu) Milestone: None => ubuntu-25.08 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2115707 Title: merge qemu 10.1 for questing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/2115707/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
