I cannot upgrade to the bullseye-backports versions of the qemu-system-x86 and qemu-system-common packages, as the dependencies of these packages require libvirt-daemon 7.0.0-3, despite the fact that I have that exact version installed.

Below you can find the output of apt:

The problem resides in the dependencies of the qemu-system-common
package in bullseye-backports:


Package: qemu-system-common
Version: 1:6.1+dfsg-6~bpo11+1
Priority: optional
Section: otherosfs
Source: qemu
Maintainer: Debian QEMU Team <pkg-qemu-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org>

libepoxy0 (>= 1.3), libfuse3-3 (>= 3.2.3), libgbm1 (>= 7.11~1),

Replaces: qemu-system-data (<< 1:3.1+dfsg-1~), qemu-utils (<< 1:3.1+dfsg-3~)
Homepage: http://www.qemu.org/

As you can see, it breaks libvirt-daemon < 7.2.0-1.


It would be great if you backported the 7.6.0-1 version of
libvirt-daemon in bookworm to bullseye-backports.

Hello,

Any update on this backport? Anyone working on it?

Thanks,

Istiak Ferdous

Hi,
I’m sorry about 'multiple emails', but but since qemu 6 broke libvirt <7.2 I would be grateful
if libvirt maintainers/uploaders could backport libvirt in bullseye-backports in order to have
all aligned and working with the latest qemu.

Thanks in advance for considering my request.

Regards,
Enrico

Many thanks to all maintainers/uploaders/contributors/backporters to have update and backported
the last version of 'libvirt' into bullseye!

Thanks for your work!

Enrico
