Stable releases of Ubuntu maintain packages in the repositories for
security-patches only; bumping versions beyond this is not a standard modus
operandi. To bump the versions in stable releases we follow the Stable
Release Updates documentation and rules:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates. You will need to justify why
QEMU should be version bumped from 4.1 to 4.2 in the currently available
Ubuntu releases. If 4.2 is available in Debian Unstable then Ubuntu 20.04
will include that version, or a later version if it arrives before the
repository sync, when it is released in April.
