For this, I would recommend using whatever the packaging
format for those systems is. Eg for Debian use the existing
Debian QEMU packages, for Redhat systems use RPMs, etc.
If you want a newer version of QEMU than is in the distro's
packages, you can probably forward port the packaging parts
to a newer QEMU without too much pain.
Or you can use a distro-agnostic packaging tool of some sort;
there are a few out there but I have no particular recommendations.
thanks
