Package: qemu
Version: 0.8.0-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
With this patch, running a dynamically linked program in QEMU would be
as simple as (assuming dpkg-cross is installed):
wget <target's libc6 and other library dependencies>
dpkg-cross -i -a <arch> <target's libraries>
qemu-<arch> <program>
Additionally, make qemu use the same libraries installed by dpkg-cross
by default would help people doing cross-compilation development (e.g.
testing compiled programs/libraries). Note that the interpreter path
can still be changed using the -L parameter as usual.
Changes from patch posted in #327622: modify qemu-ppc interpreter
prefix to match Debian's PPC architecture string (powerpc-linux-gnu);
use "linux-gnu" instead of DEB_HOST_GNU_SYSTEM to cover the case where
host is not Linux (e.g. kFreeBSD).
Note: this patch assumes that #356284 is applied.
Changelog:
* Change default interpreter prefix to match dpkg-cross crossdir.
* Suggests dpkg-cross to be used with user mode emulators.
