Thanks, I was not aware of this! I removed the unneeded packages.

It should be enough to install just qemu-system-x86, and maybe qemu-utils. But this is unrelated to your bug report.I would agree, however, removing, for example, qemu-system-mips would also remove qemu-system for me.Sure, - qemu-system is an emtpy meta-package which just depends on all of qemu-system-* variants -- it's here since old days when there was single qemu-system package with all qemu system emulators, rather huge - later on I split it into separate families, and most of the time only one family is used. You don't need qemu-system, just particular family of it. Hopefully all packages which use qemu (like libvirt) has proper dependency - on particular family of qemu-system or on qemu-system-any. Thanks, /mjt
