I can be useful to add the link to the release changelog:
https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/6.0

You can also do a runtime testing with gitlab-ci with all qemu defconfig and add
the link to your pipeline.
I'm using gitlab-ci for such testing (qemu, toolchain, kernel update) :)

I had a look at qemu 6.0.0 but haven't had the time to finish the testing.

I noticed some new build options:

--disable-fuse
--disable-fuse-lseek
--disable-gettext
--disable-lto
--disable-cfi

and a lot of options conversion to meson.
Indded, qemu project is working on meson build system but it's not yet ready.
This is why we still use generic-package and not meson-package infra.

Best regards,
Romain
