Ok; the commit you point at is in the current qemu-linaro package Fix released in Ubuntu is when we upload a fixed source package to the Ubuntu development release
The usual way to close Ubuntu bugs fixed with an upload is via the debian/changelog, when Launchpad processes the .changes file with the list of fixed bugs, it marks these fix released If we need to track status in stable releases of Ubuntu, we use "Target to series" to flag the ones where we need a different bug state ** Changed in: qemu-linaro (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/604872 Title: qemu-system-arm segfaults emulating versatile machine after running debootstrap --second-stage inside vm Status in QEMU: Fix Committed Status in “qemu-linaro” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: qemu-kvm As I'm now implementing the support for creating a rootstock rootfs without requiring root, I need to run the deboostrap' second stage inside a VM, to correctly install the packages into the rootfs. qemu-system-arm fails right after debootstrap finish the second stage, giving a segmentation fault.
