** Description changed:

+ [ Impact ]
+ 
+ The bug displays a warning when calling autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud. 
This is because the call to qemu uses a deprecated short version. The risk is 
that
+ in a future version of qemu the support for this short option is removed and
+ the tool stops working.
+ 
+ [ Test Plan ]
+ 
+ Use the patched autopkgtest package to run the 
+ autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud command, and verify that the warning
+ is gone.
+ 
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+ 
+ People running versions of qemu without the support for `readonly=on`
+ (if such version exist) may have the autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud
+ tool stop working.
+ 
+ [ Original Bug Report ]
+
