+# Issues
+This project is based on an old version of QEMU.
+There have been efforts to upgrade this project to use a newer version of QEMU [see issue #20 for more discussion](https://github.com/beckus/qemu_stm32/issues/20).
+Thanks goes to [fariouche](https://github.com/fariouche) for making an attempt at updating the QEMU version in their [fork of QEMU_STM32](https://github.com/fariouche/qemu_stm32), though I am not sure of its status (see posts [here](https://github.com/beckus/qemu_stm32/issues/20#issuecomment-1057094767) and [here](https://github.com/beckus/qemu_stm32/issues/20#issuecomment-1869802279) for more info).
+
+Notably, QEMU STM32 is dependent on Python2, making it incompatible with newer versions of GNU/Linux (thank you to [jmfriedt](https://github.com/jmfriedt) for reporting this - see [this post](https://github.com/beckus/qemu_stm32/issues/20#issuecomment-1869802279) for more info).

 # Features
 
 The latest release of QEMU STM32 includes the following features.  Note that only basic functionality may be provided - there will inevitably be features (especially uncommon features) that are not emulated.  I have included links to the relevant commits or files.
