Package: ganeti
Version: 2.16.0-4
Severity: grave
Tags: newcomer
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

After performing the usual apt upgrade on my system, I found Ganeti was unable
to start my virtual machines.

The error message, from qemu, was that -balloon was an invalid option.
Searching the man showed no reference on Buster, but on Stretch it was there.

Looking over the change log for qemu 3.1
(https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/3.1#Incompatible_changes) the 4th entry
mentioned `-balloon` had changed to `-device virtio-balloon`

Hopefully this can be resolved by a simple search and replace within the Python
scripts powering Ganeti.
As of yet, I haven't had a look. There will likely be other options that will
be affected by the update to qemu.
