WHY CentOS still using qemu-kvm 0.12?
What I am need is high version of qemu-kvm for CentOS, but seems like
they do not officially provide newest qemu, only qemu 0.12 source code
with 3522 patched rpm package.
With distros it's always a question of stability vs bleeding edge. It's
not possible to have git builds every day and guarantee enterprise
stability at the same time. CentOS and RHEL are distributions that
prefer enterprise stability to the latest versions of all packages. If
you, however, want newer version of some package, you can still download
its source code and build it from there. Or use a distribution that
packages only the fresh new stuff out there.
