Let me recommend the following to get this issue addressed: Since there are always features that are in one or the other situation or version or a certain platform not supported, the usual way to address this is to add a statement/disclaimer to the release notes to get it documented - if necessary. The msg that is given is imho not too bad and pretty common: "error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'cpu-add': Not supported" And with the availability of 18.04.1 the recommendation to upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 is in place, too. Creating, testing and rolling-out a new package just with a modified message is not appropriate and SRU-ing is probably not possible at all, since SRUs are meant to address high impact bugs (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates). So if there are no further and hard requirements for a patched package (that justify an SRU), I strongly recommend to add an appropriate msg to the 16.04 release notes and get this ticket closed.
