autopkgtest-virt-qemu sometimes hangs when running tests on noble images. Originally reported by schopin, who also provided a reproducer:

  pull-lp-source -d hello
  autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud -r noble
  autopkgtest -U hello*.dsc -- qemu ./autopkgtest-noble-amd64.img

I've been able to reproduce it with debugging enabled:

  autopkgtest -ddd -U hello_2.10-3.dsc -- qemu --debug --show-boot /path/to/image

It can get stuck during different stages, but AFAICT always during "copydown" operations, log excerpts follow. It may be a coincidence, but this started happening around the time linux-image-6.8.0-11-generic (6.8.0-11.11) migrated to noble. The testbeds I used booted 6.6 but then rebooted into that 6.8 kernel after being upgraded by autopkgtest.
