Bug#136518: ITP: bochs - full intel emulator
This ITP has gotten to be a real hot potato..
On Sat, Mar 02, 2002 at 08:17:45PM -0500, Dale Scheetz <dwarf@polaris.net> was heard to say:
> Bochs, pronounced BOX, has the logo "think inside the bochs", and is
> already a very good alternative to the more commercial emulators we are
> all familiar with. It is a full emulator for the Intel hardware, and will
> even run on my Sparc, unlike other emulators which rely on Intel hardware
> to perform some of their functions.
>
> While bochs is still considered Beta software by its developers, it has
> come a long way in the short while I have been tracking the CVS
> archives, both building on and able to install a wide variety of OSs, and
> there is agreement to produce another point release soon. Once that

This has already been ITPed (#78642), and I was told on IRC just today
(a few hours ago) that the Debian maintainer of plex86 supposedly has
binary packages that are going to be sponsored. (that suggests he's taking
over the ITP from Goswin, who seems to have dropped off the face of the
Earth temporarily)
I have a reference to where you can find packages, but unfortunately..umm..I
lost it *sheepish look*. It was on people.debian.org, though.
