fast processor emulator

QEMU is a fast processor emulator: currently the package supports ARM, CRIS, i386, M68k (ColdFire), MicroBlaze, MIPS, PowerPC, SH4, SPARC and x86-64 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 machines on a single server.

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

This package is a metapackage depending on all qemu-related packages.
