** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: qemu-kvm
  
  Hi.
  
  The qemu-kvm version in lucid doesn't respond to system_powerdown.
  
  My guess is that its related to the bug reported in:
  http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg42872.html
+ 
+ SRU Justification:
+ 1. Impact: cannot system_shutdown freebsd
+ 2. How bug was addressed:  A commit from the upstream git tree was 
cherrypicked.  Three earlier patches were pulled as well so that the patch 
would easily apply.
+ 3. Patch: see debdiff attached
+ 4. TEST CASE: try system_shutdown in freebsd guest under kvm on a lucid host.
+ 5. Regression potential: these patches are pulled from upstream git and are 
present in natty, so they should be safe.  However, since they were 
cherrypicked, it is possible that interactions due to other patches not being 
applied could cause a problem, so normal workloads very much need to be tested.
