The Linaro PPA provides a package based on qemu-maemo from gitorious, and it is ahead of what is packaged in that it supports the BeagleBoard.
Yes. At the moment I think that something based on that tree is your best practical choice if you want neon support and certainly if you need omap3.
thanks, I'll look at that tree then more closely. I'm wondering whether the package name should reflect it is Linaro and ARM related in general and not for maemo (meego is not even called that anymore)
