Lets compile KVM – QEMU from scratch on Debian Jessie

This… will take a long ass time!.

mkdir -p /usr/local/libexec
mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/qemu
mkdir -p /usr/local/var
mkdir -p /usr/local/share/doc
 
cd /usr/local/src/
git clone git://git.qemu-project.org/qemu.git

make -j4 <- (Core count)
 
checkinstall -D
 
(This will create the .deb package), make sure to fill in version, package name, etc.
dpkg -i (just created package)
qemu-system-x86_64 –version <== Check it's your version.

Find attached my .deb if you’re too lazy for that.

Meet this requirements first, before using my .deb !!
