Package: bochs Version: 2.6-5 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
it would be nice if the Debian package of bochs could be built with SMP support enabled to allow emulation of multi processor systems including multi-cores and multi-threaded ones. The attached patch does the required change by adding --enable-smp to configure in the debian/rules file. It was successfuly built and tested on amd64 with the bochs CPU configuration "cpu: count=2:2:2".
