qemu (1.6.0+dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Michael Tokarev ]
  * final upstream v1.6.0 (Closes: #718180, #714273, #605525, #701855)
  * removed configure-explicitly-disable-virtfs-if-softmmu=no.patch
  * mention closing of #717724 by 1.6
  * mention closing of #710971 by 1.5 (which disabled gtk support)

  [ Riku Voipio ]
  * - set --cross-prefix in debian/rules when cross-compiling

qemu (1.6.0~rc0+dfsg-1exp) experimental; urgency=low

  * uploading to experimental (rc0)
  * new upstream release (release candidate) (Closes: #718016, #717724)
  * removed patches:
   - qemu-1.5.1.diff
   - sparc-linux-user-fix-missing-symbols-in-.rel-.rela.plt-sections.patch
  * refreshed use-fixed-data-path.patch
  * ship new qemu_logo_no_text.svg
  * stop shipping sgabios symlink, it is moved to sgabios package
  * bump version of libseccomp build dependency to 2.1 (minimum
    required to build) and disable libseccomp for now (because it
    isn't available in debian yet)

qemu (1.5.0+dfsg-5) unstable; urgency=low

  * new upstream 1.5.1 stable/bugfix release (as qemu-1.5.1.diff)
    removed qemu_openpty_raw-helper.patch (included upstream)
  * configure-explicitly-disable-virtfs-if-softmmu=no.patch -- do not
    build virtfs-proxy-helper stuff if not building system emulator
    (fix FTBFS on s390)
  * disable gtk ui and build dependencies, as it adds almost nothing
    compared with sdl (well, except bugs and limitations), and has
    lots of additional dependencies (Closes: #710971)
  * remove obsolete /etc/init.d/qemu-kvm (Closes: #712898)
  * fix versions of obsolete qemu-kvm conffiles to be removed
  * provide manpage for obsolete kvm (Closes: #716891, #586973)
  * add --daemonize option to the guest-agent startup script (Closes: #715502)
  * clarify what qemu-guest-agent does (Closes: #714270) and provide
    its json schema as a doc

qemu (1.5.0+dfsg-4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * urgency is medium to make it go faster because, on one hand, we've
    been in unstable for quite a bit longer than needed already and
    have nothing but (build) fixes in there, but on the other hand
    we're holding migration of other packages which are waiting for
    us, again, for too long already
  * added qemu_openpty_raw-helper.patch - a cleanup patch submitted upstream
    which removes #include <termios.h> from common header and hence works
    around FTBFS problem on debian sparc where somehow, <termios.h> conflicts
    with <linux/termio.h>.

Binary packages built by this source

qemu: fast processor emulator

 QEMU is a fast processor emulator: currently the package supports
 ARM, CRIS, i386, M68k (ColdFire), MicroBlaze, MIPS, PowerPC, SH4,
 SPARC and x86-64 emulation. By using dynamic translation it achieves
 reasonable speed while being easy to port on new host CPUs. QEMU has
 two operating modes:
 .
  * User mode emulation: QEMU can launch Linux processes compiled for
    one CPU on another CPU.
  * Full system emulation: QEMU emulates a full system, including a
    processor and various peripherals. It enables easier testing and
    debugging of system code. It can also be used to provide virtual
    hosting of several virtual machines on a single server.
 .
 As QEMU requires no host kernel patches to run, it is very safe and
 easy to use.
 .
 This package is a metapackage depending on all qemu-related packages.

qemu-common: dummy transitional package from qemu-common to qemu-keymaps

 This transitional package helps users transition from the qemu-common package
 to the qemu-keymaps package. Once this package and its dependencies are
 installed you can safely remove it.

qemu-guest-agent: Guest-side qemu-system agent

 QEMU is a fast processor emulator: currently the package supports
 ARM, CRIS, i386, M68k (ColdFire), MicroBlaze, MIPS, PowerPC, SH4,
 SPARC and x86-64 emulation. By using dynamic translation it achieves
 reasonable speed while being easy to port on new host CPUs.
 .
 This package provides a daemon (agent) to run inside qemu-system
 guests (full system emulation). It communicates with the host using
 a virtio-serial channel org.qemu.guest_agent.0, and allows one to perform
 some functions in the guest from the host, including:
  - querying and setting guest system time
  - performing guest filesystem sync operation
  - initiating guest shutdown or suspend to ram
  - accessing guest files
  - freezing/thawing guest filesystem operations
  - others.
 .
 Install this package on a system which is running as guest inside
 qemu virtual machine. It is not used on the host.

 package or QEMU derivatives.

qemu-kvm: QEMU Full virtualization

 QEMU is a fast processor emulator. This package depends on the
 appropriate qemu-system-$arch to enable KVM to be run. It also

 .
 Please note that old qemu-kvm configuration files (in /etc/kvm/) are
 no longer used.
