Neither did pulls or patches applied by Anthony get such a notice fwiw so that it's hard to distinguish what's missing for anyone but the patch author. With rc0 not being provided as tarball, it would be nice to document the official, reproducible way of packaging a QEMU tarball on the Wiki. I have collected some steps from the Rob Landley mips thread, but the submodules complicate things a bit. rc1 should've been released yesterday, but it's not available yet, no info and same issue with patches not being applied. In the current state of master, rc1 will not build on ppc due to an #error introduced since rc0 by malc - with its history, Darwin/ppc should not be a release blocker here and *some* fix to restore the build should please be applied soon. And worse, there's more and more colliding patch series on the list - fixed-width visitors, realize, QBus, VMState, AREG0, CPU - for which we need a strategy to coordinate our ongoing development and post-1.1 merging. Someone needs to rebase on someone else, question is whom. Some downstream feedback: I've so far been unable to do a static build of v1.1-rc0 in the openSUSE build system due to a -lpcre coming from gthread-2.0.pc Libs.private - an issue we don't see for v1.0.1. If another distro has encountered that issue I'd be grateful for feedback. Might be our own issue. In course of investigating though, I've noticed that lots of our configure checks are not limited to non-static/softmmu builds and will contribute cflags/libs to a static linux-user build even if unused.
