Dear Maintainer,
My working configuration with 1:8.2.5+ds-2 was:
,----
| -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:67,model=virtio -net tap
`----
Now with 1:9.0.1+ds-1 qemu-system-ppc64 doesn't start.
Apparently NIC support is missing:
I don't know what "NIC support is missing" means. Qemu can't be built
without support for networking. The -nic option is obsolete for a long
time, that's true, but it works still.
The above command (with additional parameters specifying image file and
other stuff) works for me just fine.

Do not run qemu as root.

What do you expect here? Is the problem you're reporting boils
down to missing support for -net nic,model=help (for obsolete
option -nic)? If yes, perhaps the bug title is wrong?
I can't get head or tail of this report.
Thanks,
