Package: qemu
Version: 0.8.0-3
Severity: normal


Hi,


I installed qemu on my computer. I have the following /etc/resolv.conf:
nameserver localhost

And qemu does not start : 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/space/qemu] $ qemu -hda debianbase  -cdrom
../debian-31r1a-i386-businesscard.iso -net user 
Could not get DNS address
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/space/qemu] $

If I delete localhost from my resolv.conf file and replace it with
127.0.0.1, it works.

I agree with Aurelien, your system was broken, thus closing this bug
report.
