Package: qemu-user
Version: 1.0.1+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/qemu-i386
Dear Maintainer,
When using qemu-i386 to run any program that tries to fork, the fork fails,
making many (perhaps most) programs unusable.
Here is an example (host is i386, so no chroot needed):
$ qemu-i386 /bin/bash
$ ls
bash: fork: Invalid argument
$ exit
exit
The expected behavior, of course, would be for ls to actually be executed.
Note that qemu-arm does not exhibit this bug, nor does qemu-i386 system.
(On i386, this bug doesn't hurt the usablility of this package, since it is
easier and faster to just run the program natively. But on other
architectures, this bug is a problem. In particular, one might want, for
example, to run WINE under qemu-i386 since it doesn't work on other
architectures.)

This has been finally fixed in 1.6.0 version. Closing this bugreport now.
Thanks,
