Package: looking-glass-client
Version: 0+a12-2
Severity: minor

qemu package is a dummy metapackage which has no actual reason to exist.
Qemu provides 2 entirely different modes of operations, it is a
system-level emulation, where qemu emulates whole (hardware)
system with its own CPU, memory subsystem, peripherial devices,
BIOS/firmware etc. This is qemu-system, or, with hardware
assistance, qemu-kvm. And another mode, where it can run
linux programs built for different architecture on another
linux system, for example to run arm linux binaries on an
x86 linux. This is qemu-user and variations.

I might be wrong, but it looks to me like looking-glass-client
is only enhances native hardware-assisted system virtualization
of qemu, which is qemu-kvm (which is provided by one of the
qemu-system-XXX packages, depending on the architecture).
I guess for a "Enhances" field you might want to list one
of qemu-system-XXX pckages in there (or all of them,
depending on what your package actually does) - with
XXX being arm, misc, mips, ppc, sparc, s390x and x86.

The goal is to remove `qemu' binary metapackage from
Debian, because this package is not right, it is
pulling whole qemu with all its modes of operations, -
this is not what most people actually want, due to
what's been said above.

Thanks,

/mjt
