Debian: Compile QEMU from Source
by admin on May.24, 2012, under Linux (Ubuntu)
Today I wanted to install a recent version of qemu on one of my machines. I’m using Debian 6 Sqeeze and installed qemu as described in this article.
Prerequisites:
apt-get install pkg-config apt-get install glib-2.0 --force-yes -y apt-get install libglib2.0-dev --force-yes -y
The actual installation:
mkdir /opt/qemu/ cd /opt/qemu/ wget http://wiki.qemu.org/download/qemu-1.0.1.tar.gz tar xzvf qemu-*.tar.gz cd qemu* ./configure make sudo make install
That’s all about it. You can check which qemu version you’re running by executing the terminal command qemu –version
Update: (thanks Aerthel)
Your executables can be found in /usr/local/bin

Check on /usr/local/bin. Tehre you should find all the qemu’s executables. Just run the one you want from there.
