Source: libguestfs
Version: 1.12.8-1
Severity: serious
Justification: FTBFS

This package FTBFS for me on a clean sid i386 chroot:

checking that /usr/bin/kvm -help works... yes
configure: error: in 
`/build/dom-libguestfs_1.12.8-1-i386-oAGKGc/libguestfs-1.12.8/debian/build-python2.6':
configure: error: I did not find virtio-serial support in
/usr/bin/kvm.

virtio-serial support in qemu or KVM is essential for libguestfs
to operate.

Usually this means that you have to install a newer version of qemu
and/or KVM.  Please read the relevant section in the README file for
more information about this.

You can override this test by setting the environment variable
vmchannel_test=no  However if you don't have the right support
in your qemu, then this just delays the pain.

If I am using the wrong qemu or you want to compile qemu from source
and install it in another location, then you should configure with
the --with-qemu option.

See `config.log' for more details
checking for virtio-serial support in /usr/bin/kvm... no
