Package: qemu-kvm
Version: 0.12.5+dfsg-3
Severity: important
If kvm is started with nohup in the background, it still dies when the shell
from which it was started is closed. This is a regression from Lenny. It would
be very nice if you could fix this in squeeze.
The problem is that it registers the terminating signal handler for SIGHUP
even if SIGHUP has been set to "ignore" by nohup.

If you want to run it in background, use -daemonize instead. Alternatively you
can use setsid. Overwise it still has the controlling terminal open.
I'm closing the bug because of this.
Note also that you've choosen important severity for the bug,
while it's a minor issue.
