qemu (1:7.2+dfsg-5) unstable; urgency=medium

  * d/qemu-guest-agent.udev: fix missing comma
    (Christian Schneider <email address hidden>, Closes: #1031838)
  * remove qemu-make-debian-root.
    Ths script debian/qemu-make-debian-root has been broken for ages.
    In 2023, it creates /etc/fstab with a reference to /dev/hda1, and
    edits /etc/inittab which does not exist. And no one noticed, - so
    it's safe to assume it is not used anymore.  Just remove it.
  * re-pick qemu-stable patches from master (the same patch contents):
    master/tests-tcg-i386-Introduce-and-use-reg_t-consistently.patch
    master/target-i386-Fix-BEXTR-instruction.patch

 This package provides a daemon (agent) to run inside qemu-system
 guests (full system emulation). It communicates with the host using
 a virtio-serial channel org.qemu.guest_agent.0, and allows one to perform
 some functions in the guest from the host, including:
  - querying and setting guest system time
  - performing guest filesystem sync operation
  - initiating guest shutdown or suspend to ram
  - accessing guest files
  - freezing/thawing guest filesystem operations
  - others.
 .
 Install this package on a system which is running as guest inside
 qemu virtual machine. It is not used on the host.
