 .
   * New update for the Ubuntu Cloud Archive.
 .
 qemu (1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu2) bionic; urgency=medium
 .
   * d/p/ubuntu/qemu-stable-2.11.1.patch: add stable release
     - among other fixes this adds code to:
       - mitigate the Spectre/Meltdown attacks (LP: #1744882) (CVE-2017-5715)
         However, enabling this functionality requires additional configuration
         beyond just updating QEMU. Also migrations need special consideration.
         Details about that can be found at:
