The purpose of this project is to build a highly compatible QEMU binary package for linux to use with Zig testing.
Zig needs a very recent QEMU version, sometimes unreleased commit-revs, and sometimes with custom patches. For this reason, distro-based QEMU packages are unsuitable.
The overall strategy is to use Alpine Linux to host a QEMU build and link statically to all possible libraries.
It is a non-goal to build QEMU with all features enabled. It is a non-goal to build older versions of QEMU.
