[ddp] qemu : fast processor emulator

[daily-debian-package at enix.org]

Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package qemu, which is part
of the misc section, and maintained by Debian QEMU Team
<pkg-qemu-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org>. 

This package contains : fast processor emulator.

QEMU is a fast processor emulator: currently the package supports
arm, powerpc, sparc and x86 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 PC on a single server.

As QEMU requires no host kernel patches to run, it is very safe and
easy to use.
