Comment 76 for bug 2012763

Performing the verification on Jammy.

First, verifying that we can reproduce the problem.

# apt policy qemu-system-x86
qemu-system-x86:
  Installed: 1:6.2+dfsg-2ubuntu6.18
  Candidate: 1:6.2+dfsg-2ubuntu6.18
  Version table:

qemu-system-x86_64: Invalid SMP CPUs 300. The max CPUs supported by machine 'pc-q35-jammy' is 288

Now, updating the package and verifying that the version from -proposed fixes the issue:

# apt policy qemu-system-x86
qemu-system-x86:
  Installed: 1:6.2+dfsg-2ubuntu6.19
  Candidate: 1:6.2+dfsg-2ubuntu6.19

...
<no QEMU error>

This concludes the verification on Jammy.
