Hi,

I'm working on building several images that will be used in a Xen based 
virtual environment.  Does the Qemu accelerator need to be selected based 
on the targeted running VM environment (Xen in my case) or the build 
environment for the image (KVM at the moment)? Maybe I'm being a bit dense 
while reading the documentation for the Qemu builder but I didn't find the 
definition very clear for what "running the VM" meant.

accelerator <https://www.packer.io/docs/builders/qemu.html#accelerator> 
(string) 
- The accelerator type to use when running the VM. This may be none, kvm, 
tcg, hax, hvf, or xen. The appropriate software must have already been 
installed on your build machine to use the accelerator you specified. When 
no accelerator is specified, Packer will try to use kvm if it is available 
but will default to tcgotherwise.


Thanks!

Ryan
