Dear Maintainer,

The application worked fine before the upgrade to 9.0.2. Here is a
minimal example:

$ qemu-system-x86_64 --version
QEMU emulator version 8.2.5 (Debian 1:8.2.5+ds-1)
Copyright (c) 2003-2023 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers

# qemu-system-x86_64 -netdev bridge,id=n1
qemu-system-x86_64: warning: netdev n1 has no peer
VNC server running on 127.0.0.1:5900

Did you use dpkg-statoverride to add setuid bit to qemu-bridge-helper?
-netdev bridge does not work by default on debian unless you run it as
root (which is not recommended).

qemu (1:9.0.2+ds-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * move helper binaries (qemu-bridge-helper, virtfs-proxy-helper,
    vhost-user-gpu) from usr/lib/qemu to usr/libexec/qemu

Please see if adding suid bit to /usr/libexec/qemu/qemu-bridge-helper
resolves this issue.

Thanks,

/mjt
