Hi,
After pulling in the QEMU latest commits, I can no longer run the
"configure" command. Below is the error message I am seeing. I believe this
is related to this change "configure: create a python venv
unconditionally".
I am running on Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) and 5.15 kernel version.
What can I do to fix/work around the issue?
Thanks, Hao
