** Description changed:
Binary package hint: qemu-kvm
- this probably isn't a bug - I'm probably doing this to myself - my Lucid
upgrade from Hardy broke my working qemu setup, running a win98 image. This is
referred to in bug # 521994. To get the qemu working again, I removed (with
aptitude) package qemu and package bochsbios from the lucid install, went back
to the hardy archives, got those packages, and installed them. That way, I
have a working qemu install. So, when updates came down the pipe per above, I
tried to unselect all that I thought might break my working qemu setup, but I
think I missed bochsbios; not sure. But, that's why I got the error above.
The good news is, I was able to fix by # aptitude remove qemu-kvm, then
+ ============================================
+ SRU Justification
+ 1. Impact: upgrades from hardy to lucid break
+ 2. Development fix: N/A (qemu package as of lucid is a meta-package)
+ 3. Stable fix: mark qemu-common as replacing qemu to force
/usr/share/qemu/keymaps/fr to be removed
+ 4. Test case: install qemu-kvm in a hardy distribution, then upgrade to lucid.
+ 5. Regression potential: none

The following packages will be REMOVED: bochsbios{u} qemu-kvm seabios{u}
vgabios{u}
And actually, I went back and installed package qemu with all of it's
dependencies, but unfortunately, the lucid qemu install still misbehaves per
bug # 521994.
